Default Parachute Regiment Cloth Title with serifs

A nice example and smaller in size than the one in my present collection.

I know, it's disgraceful what some folk will do to get their grubby little mitts on the contents of your wage packet!

I have one of these in the post, there does not seem to be much out there on these, apart from being early post war. Look very good as well

Mine arrived today, I notice the reverse in terms of material are a match for two airborne titles I already own, though they are sans serifs as is normal, which I assume are wartime as the AIRBORNE title was not used post war
