Tim,

That is some impressive collection. I have a nice KC version, but was not aware there was also a QC version, so will look to add one at some point.

I always enjoy seeing your collection!!!

Terry

Tim. Mine looks similar to the one 3rd line down, 1st example.
Mine is extremely well made embroidered on a brown material.

Jerry,
Yes they seem identical with that khaki brown edge and probably the last production in the 1960s.
