Default 1st NFLD shoulder title

This title was acquired in Cape Town, South Africa . How it got here is a mystery.
I gather that it was worn by the 1st batallion of the Newfoundland Regiment in WW1. It looks like it had a hard life, rather like the regiment.
Can anyone tell me a bit more about the 1st Newfoundland Regiment
Many thanks
Mike Rowan

Default 1st NFLD shoulder title

Looks OK to me, these titles seem almost to be made individually, I bought two from the same place and were both slightly different in construction.
