Default The parade of reproduction 1 Cdn Para titles continues

Another, rather crude offering of the 1 Canadian Parachute Battalion shoulder title. This appears to be the pattern which came on the market about 10 years ago. (Well, as I was typing this post someone has bought it.)

The thing worth observing is that these are being bought even though the quality and provenance is obviously suspect.
