Beautiful 1960s Oceanside CA Police Chief Badge by Blackinton Private Purchase with Great Duty Wear

This is a Beautiful circa 1960's Oceanside California Police Chief Badge by Blackinton in a 1970's Safariland Belt Clip, apparently as worn by a past Chief, displaying nice duty wear. Although not an Issue Oceanside Badge, the badge shows great duty wear, so must have been purchased as a "Second" by a past Chief of the Department. 

1960's - 1970's.

Approximately Badge: 3" in height x 2-1/8" in width. Clip: 3-3/8" in height x 2-1/4" in width.

Hi-GLO, brass alloy with hard-fired black enamel. Leather, steel clip.
