Default Reinforcing Peter's Response

In John Waring's Identification Pamphlet #2 (British Miscellaneous Cloth Formation Signs And Titles), he indicates the following for the 2 units you have asked about:

F T279: King Edward VII School CCF Title. Shape 9. Red letters on navy blue, "KING EDWARD VII SCHOOL/KING'S LYNN C.C.F.", embossed on felt.

F T372: Queen Mary's School, Basingstoke CCF Title. Shape 1. Light blue letters on navy blue, "QUEEN MARY'S C.C.F.", embossed on felt.

or

F T373: Queen Mary's School, Walsall CCF Title. Shape 1. Yellow letters on green, "Queen Mary's C.C.F.", embossed on felt.

I hope that helps?

Default Images of the Queen Mary's School CCF Cloth STs

And I'll have a look for other cloth ST that I may have elsewhere in my collection.
