Default Liverpool Collegiate Institution Cadets badge

I have had this drawing and description of the badge of the Liverpool Collegiate Institution Cadets for many years.

I little thought that I would ever see an actual example, never mind become the temporary custodian of one but I won the example being offered in yesterdays Bosleys postal auction.

Needless to say I am very pleased to have won the lot and will post a picture of the actual badge when it arrives.

P.B.

Wow Peter,

I agree 'a cracking' badge indeed. Lucky bugger... A wonderful addition, very well done and super nice to have both the badge and design - double 'well done'...!

Cheers, Roy.
