Question Cloth items
I bought these today and would value opinions.

Army Air Corps pilots wings, these are a bit grubby . . !

Chindit patch in bullion, again grubby.

Wings and parachute, these look new to me and if thought to be original unused.

Your thoughts appreciated on these three.

Thanks Rob

Default Cloth queries
Luc, many thanks for confirming my thoughts on the AAC wings, any ideas on the Chindit patch which came with it?

The other wings I think are modern.

Smile Chindit patch
Roy, thanks for the advice on the Chindit patch, I thought it was a good one, but getting the thumbs up from you confirms my thoughts.

Best wishes Rob

The Chindits patch is outside my comfort zone, but I would happily add it to my collection.
