Cool Royal Warwickshire OSD

Thanks invest for putting up you Royal Warwickshire OSD's a nice collection you have, I think my badge is definitely a cap badge having been told that Bruce Bairnsfather wore similar one.

I think the old adage that OSD cap badges had blades and collars had loops is still worth bearing in mind when you are out buying badges. The number of dealers who try to sell OSD's with loops as cap badges either through ignorance or greed still happens, of course officers dress badges sometimes have either loops or blades which tends to muddy the waters to a sellers advantage.
