Black Watch 'tombstone badge'

[OC Richard]

This is up on Ebay, described as a 'tombstone badge'



When I Googled it, I found a number of British military badges/patches done in this 'tombstone' shape.

Nearly always WWII photos show the cap-badge-shaped piece of Black Watch tartan sewn directly onto the jacket sleeve, like this



But I've come across at least one photo of that badge sewn onto a khaki rectangle. That badge on a 'tombstone' shape backing is a first for me.

I've also seen at least one photo of the HD badge and the red bars all sewn onto a shared rectangular khaki patch.
