Default Question re Canadian 48th Highlander Cap Badge

I have a nice lug backed 48th Highlander cap badge but would like to get a slider version. Was such ever made? I want to put it with my ca. 1960's doublet.

Thanks

Terry

I have never seen one with a slider at any of the shows here in Canada.

A slidered version of the 48th Highlanders badge was made in the 1990's, but they are not easy to find.

They are not that common but I do see them at shows here in Toronto. I have a few examples. The top one dayes from the end of WWI and has a British maker stamp.
The bottom one is a canadian maker and dates from the 1980s?
