Is there any trace of the decal left on the front of the grip?

Is it "rare" only because it's an Inglis? Or is it a rare Inglis? I ask because I have a 2ch Inglis that I cant find much info on. All I know is mine is a 1944 manufacture...

The CH series were an order for China, if I remember Canadian's and the British got 'T' serial numbers.

CH series were made in Canada for china by John Inglis
