They certainly existed Graham. The PWO York’s were formed in 1958 by merger of the PWO West York’s and the East York’s. The badge concerned was worn at the top of the shoulder on the battle dress (BD) jacket. It would have been worn until the introduction of No2 dress, which I think was in 1967. There are examples where the glued gauze web securing the back of the felt was black, as well as the off white version.
