Kulangsu British Municipal Police Badge

[shanghaigirl]

Hi - I have attached a colour photo of a Kulangsu British Municipal Police cap badge from the Chinese Treaty Port of Amoy. Kulangsu was a small island just off of the Amoy Coast and the policing was looked after by the British prior to WW2. Does anyone have this badge, buttons or any other memorabilia to this small colonial police unit ?

Hello - Shanghai Girl. I hope you have a Good collecting year in 2010. Please give us a 'shorter' name to call you by ?

Your additions to our small band of Police Collectors are greatly appreciated - so good to have such rare items added. I had heard of this small Force, but can't remember seeing one of their badges. Could you perhaps add a little more detail to their history - all of these Colonial units are quite hard to research and , you of course, have already done thhe work ...
