Default Bedford and Hertford cloth shoulderb titles

Can anyone please tell me what period this particular pattern of shoulder titles were worn? Does the colour of the backing material have any significance or help to date them?

Thank you.

Thank you; yours appear to have an aertex backing unlike mine. I am guessing that mine are post WW2 but would like to narrow it down if possible.

RNF titles removed from a battledress blouse worn by a 1 RNF corporal in the 1960's (not removed by me).

Look like they have the same backing as the Needs & Herts ones in post no. 1.

Nah, who Needs Beds?
Auto correct prefers Needs to Bedfs. It doesn't alter the spelling till it posts.
In a battle of wits with auto correct and predictive I'm fighting unarmed.
