Default PLEASE ASSIST

Dear Forum Members,

Can I please solicit you most knowledgeable opinion on this embroidered Pegasus patch. Is this wartime or post-war patch. Appears as if it has residue from possibly being glued into an album or something.

Thank in advance!
Dave.

Thanks for your opinion Normandie18! Any other kind forum member have any opinion on this patch, I ask since I have often heard stated that the printed ones are mainly wartime, and these nice embroidered ones are post-war. I am still learning, so thanks to all in advance!

no, that is not unusual.

I have attached 3 variants from collection, similar hand embroidered types, one with partial backing, one with full backing and one with no backing
