Default Cardiff City Business Mens Rifle Corps

This is a recent and scarce pick up from Bosley’s last auction. It is one I can tick off my bucket list.
I’ve shown it with another Great War period Cardiff badge which I have not been able to identify but I’ve never seen another one.
For anyone interested in the various VTC units, which is what the 1st badge is, I thoroughly recommend Ray Westlake’s articles in the MHS Bulletins.

Stephen,
As requested. No marks on the rear of the Business Mens badge. The other is marked for Fattorini which is no great surprise.
Hwyl,
Kevin
