Hi Chris,
I think there is a picture in Keith Blakeman's album of Volunteer Battalions.
I also have one if you want another picture.
Cheers, Tinto

I'm not aware of a 9th London. The only ones I have are for the 5th (London Rifle Brigade) and recently I got a 14th (Scottish Cadets). I have seen others for the 10th (Hackney) and 19th (St.Pancras) in Bosleys auction catalogues.

Hi Guys,

This might be an elusive badge - it was authorised for issue in anodised aluminium but I have no idea what it looks like.

If anyone has a piccy of one in any material then that would help me give an idea of what I'm looking for.

Regards

Chris

The 9th London (or Queens Victoria's Rifles) certainly existed into the A/A period as KK illustrate a QC badge which they state was also issued in plastic.

Hi Chris,
Sorry, I can't help you. The badge I have, and in Keith's album is described as 9th VB, 1st London Rifle Brigade Cadet Corps.
Cheers, Tinto

Default 9th cadet battalion
Can I ask ... what dates are you considering? If it is about the 1920s the 9th Cadet Battalion in the County of London was a battalion of the London Division, Church Lads Brigade. You can see their cap badges at conijoni album on this site.
