This silk is not recorded by Godden.

The "H. SLINGSBY & SON. MANFR: NUNEATON" name is usually stamped on the reverse using an inked stamp. Part of this is visible on the reverse of this sash, although the diamond registration mark is unfortunately not visible.

This sash is of the organisation, "THE ANCIENT ORDER OF SHEPHERDS".
The latin words translate to " THE LORD IS MY SHEPEHRD".
