Is it possible to date this photo from the RF shoulder title? The metal 'T/7/CITY OF LONDON' would have changed during the Great War period to 'T/7/LONDON', suggesting this was taken pre-1918.
In addition, I believe cloth S/Ts sewn to the top of the shoulder were introduced early-1917(?).
Of course, the rule book doesn't always strictly apply, as we have seen time and again. Thoughts appreciated.
