WW1 Canadian CEF CANADA Officer’s Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair (2)

This pair of WW1 Canadian CEF CANADA Officer’s Shoulder Titles Insignia represents the type of uniform embellishment worn by officers of the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. Each title is crafted from brass and formed into the word “CANADA” in uppercase letters, identifying the wearer’s national service while attached to British or Commonwealth units. These shoulder titles were affixed to the upper uniforms, typically on the epaulettes or shoulder straps. Their design aimed to provide clear recognition of Canadian personnel within the larger Allied forces. Standardized in style, such insignia remained an important part of CEF dress regulations between 1914 and 1918. This pair offers a representative example of military insignia used by Canadian officers during the conflict. Individually struck and finished, subtle variations in construction and patina may be present, reflecting period manufacturing practices. These titles are suitable for historical reference or uniform restoration purposes.
