Default Anyone seen one.

Found on page 112 of my new " The Badges of Kitchener's Army " book a Shoulder Title to the 21st Battalion W. Yorks, (Wool Textile Pioneers). Do they exist and can I buy one...

To answer the second part of your question, I don't see why not, there are of course two issues, firstly, availability of an example and secondly, the funds needed to make the purchase!

I last found one in an antique centre in Lincolnshire around 5 or 6 years ago. I pointed it out on this forum and there was quite a queue of forum members waiting to purchase it. Yes they do exist , but finding them is neither easy nor are they common
