WELSH ASC SHOULDER TITLES

[BROOKIES]

Just wanted to show these shoulder titles (Pat better images).

First is a pair w/m volunteers ASC North Wales (not listed in Westlake collecting s/t 1st edt although he does say that only one volunteer s/t being know at that time) they did come with the w/m cap badge as a set but without separate v's (although definitely can not say if they should be three part).

Second is a pair of T ASC South Wales (unfortunately each both missing a lug) oddity/rarity being the wavy scroll on the ASC bar (how they were made and not damaged as per images) both well rubbed/polished and with different loop positioning but did also come as a pair.

Third is a T ASC Hereford (part of Welsh border brigade so in the collection) again missing one lug (can't be picky when getting the chance to pick them up !!).

Jonathon,

Nice titles.
The first seperate WM ones are more likely to be a 3 piece Territorial title rather than Vols I think.

T/ASC/NORTH WALES.

A very fine selection of titles Jonathan.

Jonathan, any chance you could show the w/m cap badge that came with the w/m titles, please?.

[BROOKIES]

Hoot, as requested images of the badge all w/m (slider as well).

Jonathon,

If the slider is also WM then it will be a GM badge with brass slider that has sometime in its life been nickel plated.

Thanks Jonathan, that is a really nice badge. It is the post-1911 pattern so it is a TF badge, not Volunteers. If it was issued along with the shoulder titles then, as Simon (Manchesters) says, they would be TF titles missing the T.
