Title SAS wings
Nationality British
Period c 1965
Sold

This is the cloth wing which emerged from a WW2 design, but is slightly different to the earlier model, principally in the colour scheme. The SAS were famous as they emerged from WW2, but really came into their own in the post-war period and currently, of course, see much active service worldwide.

The embroidery is probably of mercerised cotton to look like silk and I think the background colour is very dark blue.

They came from a collector with officer's rank slip-ons and a stable belt.

testimonials

I have in the last six months inherited my late father Alan Swain's police memorabilia collection along with much paperwork receipts etc. I would like to pass on to you my thanks for such good dealership with my father going back to the late 80s and well into the 1990s.
