Jon, If you want a better response you might want to try and post larger pictures. I can hardly make out the details...

In order to do this fast and easy we need:
a) bigger pictures - use a white background
b) pictures of the back of the buttons with readable text

1. Kingston-upon-Hull
2. as stated
3. as stated
4. generic Australian or English government services, e.g. prisons
5. British Docks Board or London Transport Board
6. Plymouth, e.g. Fire Brigade
7. cheap fashion button with a US Navy design
8. unknown - picture too small
9. generic police design (if white metal)
