Sherwood Rangers Imperial Yeomanry shoulder title help
Hi,
I am looking for a picture of a Sherwood Rangers Imperial Yeomanry ("S.R.I.Y.") brass shoulder title. Thanks for your help Normandie18 |

Hello
First example measures 17 x 55mm. Second example is sheet brass, measures 16 x 50mm. I am aware of another die cast example, similar font type to the first with thinner letters, measures c. 17 x 48mm. Hope this helps. Regards, Pat |

Trust Pat to have both patterns. Thanks for showing them as always good to see differences in patterns that are not well documented.
I was keen to collect to IY badges and titles but then I saw Pat's impressive boards and thought maybe I should walk to Everest and then think again about such an IY folly. Good luck Normandie18.

I can recall from my early collecting days having a cut down SRIY title that just read SRY with the 'I' removed, presumably post 1908.
regards

Can anyone confirm these "SRY" titles were worn until the end of WW2 in combinaison with "Sherwood Rangers" embroidered titles ? Normandie18 20210823_214853.jpg20210823_214924.jpgTROOPER HARRY BUCKINGHAM. SHERWOOD RANGERS YEOMANRY. 1920 - 1943.jpg |

do you think this shoulder title might have been worn during early WW2 ? or before ?
