That's my problem. By all accounts, the RCD's should have used the signs you just quoted. Yet Hughes' otherwise super-detailed paintings twice show the "47" device used alongside the 1st Corps sign. Options are a) he was confused and perhaps using outdated sketches for the basis of his work, b) security concerns made him deliberately obscure the markings or c) he painted what he saw and this begs the question wha..the..f???

I'm looking to pattern my Fox markings off one of these paintings so really would like to know.
