RCAF BD shoulder title question
I came across a wartime dated RCAF battledress blouse recently. On the BD, I noticed that the CANADA shoulder titles were slightly different from what I have usually seen. On almost all of the RCAF officers tunics I have come across, the font used on the CANADA titles has serifs on the lettering (similar to the title on the SD in the first picture I have attached). The example I recently came across had block lettering (similar to the title in the second attached picture). Are the block letter titles just a different variation of wartime titles? Perhaps of British manufacture? The BD itself is British, although badged to an RCAF pilot. Or are these perhaps a post-war design?
