WW1 British Officers Tunic to Major in RWF, MC Winner(no.3)

A shoulder ranked tunic belonging to Major Richard Watkin Richards, Military Cross winner of 1/4th Denbighshire Territorials Battalion RWF.
This tunic is one of three worn by the above named officer during the Great War and the last one up for sale( please see his other tunic for sale, item 50248).
Sadly this tunic has been stripped of all insignia etc with only the wound strip and RWF black collar flash remaining.
This tunic has also suffered the most from moth damage with numerous small pin holes and couple of larger holes, one hole measures approx. 20mm on back of shoulder and a smaller one on front flap of pocket, moth tracking evident in places.
Made in medium cord material with ticket pocket.
Tailors label from Carnarvon, North Wales, all buttons present with pre 1880- post 1920 spelling WELCH (same on all 3 tunics), liner is in good condition with only minor damage, chest measures approx. 36 inches.
With the re- application of collar dogs and cloth pips etc (evidence of their removal , ranked as a Captain through most of the War) this tunic would still display well.
A copy of a note found in one of the tunics will be included (please see item 50248 for more details).
