Well I hope someone does to be honest, because a lot of badges of that era are mis identified in books from 50 years ago and their ID has been accepted from then onwards.
With specific regards to the Manchester Regiment I can only identify WM, QVC glengarry badges to the following Volunteer Battalions and all have the VB number on the strap.
2 VB
3VB
5VB (Blackened)
6VB
So as far as I am aware without seeing the 1VB or 4VB glengarry badges the one with no number on the strap could in fact be one of those two. It would not surprise me at all.
regards
