10th Indian Division worsted sign
Not the usual printed canvas pattern or the cloth square with an applied bicolour X, but a worsted specimen of X on a black cloth square: theatre made? Bazar made? a pakistani repro? thank you in advance for your advise, fellow collectors!

I believe that the WW2 10th |Indian Division was perpetuated, post Independence/Partition in 1947, in the Pakistani Army. The sign you illustrate may be the post-War 10th Infantry Division. Alternatively it could have been locally made in Italy c 1944 although my examples from that period are fairly crude, felt on felt construction. Mike

If you look carefully you will see the red stripe overlaps the blue.... so that suggests not screen printed? It could be an optical thing though?
