Default R WAR F titles

Hi Royal Warwickshire fusiliers titles would these have only been worn during their time as part of the Fusiliers brigade 1962 - 68, and can anyone say if they are a common badge or not please as thinking of parting with then.

I would say that they are not incredibly rare, but in pre-internet days it took me better part of ten years to find a good pair. For years I was taunted by a picture of Roy Wood (ELO/Wizzard) wearing an Army greatcoat festooned in badges, including an R WAR F title on the flap. Since e-bay they do crop up more often.
