Default 7th Armoured Brigade miscellaneous signs

a pair of facing 7 Armoured Brigafe green jerboas, a single sign possibily produced for the George's VI visit to the VIII Army troops in Italy, July 1944, and two slip on epaulettes, badged to the 2nd and the 8th Royal Tank Regiments. The facing pair looks suspiciously in good condition to be some 70 + years old, but the cheese cloth on the back is reassuringly vintage: what's your advise, gents?

It looks to be a good haul of Jerboa's Loupie.

I have a pair which is very similar to the second type from the IWM, but with a black backing, I always thought they are good but I think there is some doubt.
