A good and early war time period so called 'cherry type' embroided serif type lettering Parachute shoulder title

This is a good example of a good mid war period embroided serif type lettering Parachute shoulder title. Introduced at the end of 1943 to replace the then worn Airborne shoulder title by the Parachute Regiment. This type was replaced by the well known dark bleu on light bleu Parachute Regiment shoulder title. This example is in a fine condition except from a small moth nip above the letter H. These 'cherry type' shoulder titles are harder to find these days.
