There is an illustration ( drawing ) in " British Territorial Units 1914-18" by Westlake and Chappell ( Plate E 1 ) which shows a Private of 2/10th Royal Scots in Russia and an illustration of this sign.

The description says "......the "Polar Star sign was worn on service dress sleeves by the 2/10th Royal Scots and other infantry units in North Russia......"

Also shown in "Divisional and other Signs " by Wheeler_Holohan.
