Etobicoke Find
Hi All.....
Etobicoke has come and gone. Picked up a couple of must have insignia. The one pictured ia a 1 Canadian Corps felt patch sewn on a tan epaullet. I was told by the dealer Lou G. it was most likely from the Italian Campain. Any thoughts ? I also picked up a nice 1 Canadian Corps OPC patch. Great show and talked to a lot of fellow collectors ! Looking forward to Cornwall show next !! VVV Gerald |

Hi Gerald, I have known Lou Grimshaw for a long time and he's very very rarely wrong. The badge was worn on a shirt epaulet and be put on and off at will. Can you show the back??? A nice interesting item,lucky you.

Yep, that's a good one. Worn in the Italian theatre by all those wearing a shirt in summer.Made it easier to put the badges on and off the shirt
Again, a nice find. Jo
