Default 1950's Bullion Canadian Parachute Wings

Hello All;

I just purchase three Canadian Bullion 1950's Era Parachute Wings. Does anyone have any similar in their collection.

Cheers
Pierre

The top badge looks like those on a number of Patrol Dress uniforms I have, i.e., silver, upswept wings and a stem on the maple leaf. I don't like the others.

Pierre,
There is an early post war version - as fitted to an officers mess dress jacket - on page 4 of my commonwealth album. This may help.

Many thanks to you both for your input. David, thank you for the nice example in your showcase and I love the one with the ribbons, very nice acquisition. Thanks.
