Default Rifle Brigade ww1 badge

my great grandfather was in the 19th western Rifle Brigade during the great war, which would be the correct cap badge and shoulder title for that era and what price should i pay, as an estimate of course.


cheers

The link below shows the badge worn during WW1. I can't tell if this is a good, genuine one or not without seeing the rear. The shoulder title worn was a blackened RB.

As for price I wouldn't expect to pay more than £10 for the pair as they were worn in their thousands and are not at all rare so I suggest contacting one of the recommended dealers (British Army Badges or Clanfield Militaria for example) listed elsewhere on the forum.
