SAS wings, what period?
2 Attachment(s)
My apologies for the poor picture quality, I had to take them using artificial light which doesn't do the colours justice.
I believe these to be genuine SAS wings, but I'm unsure about the period of use. I've already asked 2 experienced collectors of SAS militaria; according to one they are WWII issue but to the other they are '50-'60 issue. Any more suggestions? I would like to get the description correct before I list them on ebay. I've tested a loose thread found on the front and the backing material and both were cotton. |
TBH I'd say they are mid-late 40s to 50s, if they were early 40s I'd expect more of a handmade quality. :D
Just MHO though :D Tom |
Thanks Tom!

I wouldnt say WW2 by the design of the parachute,but a nice set either way mate.

I think it is early 60-ties.
