Default Anti Aircraft Section Shoulder Title..

Is this title "AAS" to the Royal Artillery Anti Aircraft Section referred to in this link?

I assume the Tiptaft Makers Mark dates it to WW1 period? Anyone seen one for sale or have any idea of it's value?

Norman Litchfield, in his Booklet on RA Shoulder Titles, says that this was "worn by members of AA Sections RGA during 1WW. Sometimes worn together with an RGA title". He sold one at auction for £18 in 2003.
