21st SAS (Artists) title 1947-54
 

Picked up and it looks good to me, I can only find one other example online to compare it with and that only shows the front. the original was posted here by Johan in a thread on Artists insignia.

It has the same thicker left upright on the A in SAS and the same thickening of the central sections of the two S's in Artists.

Trying to blow up Johans example to show the detail

Two genuine examples - on the same BD blouse. Mike

Thanks Mike,

they seem to be a good match for the one I showed.

Here is one of mine for comparison - I hope it helps

Thanks Mike B.

It seems a perfect match to mine, even has the same mesh backing.

Hi Jerry
Quite right - you can tell a lot from the reverse of titles, the similarities struck me too.
Note also the front, and how the opening bracket abuts the dot after the S.
All the best
Mike

Mike,
I was happy with it from the pics before I bought it, but finding others to compare it against just for the final confirmation was what I hoped I would get and you and mike Jackson came through for me. Especially good to see yours up close and the reverse in particular as I had not seen the reverse of this pattern previously.

Pleased to help - A nice looking title
Mike

Mike,

Very nice BD, a pity the wings were removed!

Cheers,

Johan

Hi Jerry,

A very good find! These early 21 titles are quite rare!

No doubts whatsoever about it. The mesh on the back matches with the title I posted a picture of.

Cheers,

Johan

Thanks Johan.

it goes nicely with the similar date wings I have.

Bumping this after seeing one of these titles for sale at £550......

Ah, I detect a smug face? :D
