Default CEF collar badge/shoulder title ID WWI

G'day there folks!

When I was rummaging around a chest of family pictures, I came across a post card sent to my great grandmother by her cousin.

There is a small inscription in pencil on the reverse "during 1914-18 war", but that's about it really.

I've been collecting cap badges for the past year and a half, but the collar badges are slightly vexing to me. I had a look through the CEF gallery and they look like they might be General List ones, with the KC and U shaped "Canada" beneath. (Type 4?)

Is anyone able to confirm/refute my suspicions, and also recognise what style the shoulder title are?

Here's a link to a google drive with the image https://drive.google.com/file/d/19rA...ew?usp=sharing

All the best,
Alexander

Hello Alexander.
The collars in the image are a variety of the general list pattern. The shoulder title is a generic CANADA pattern.
