PLEASE NOTE: We are BOTH IN THE OFFICE as of MONDAY 06/09,
BUT this is somewhat Temporary,
So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!
Update 06/09/25: WE ARE still EXPERIENCING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH non-PayPal CREDIT CARD PURCHASES!!
We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!
We are HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ORDERS during this time, and we will promptly SHIP MOST orders within ONE Business Day of Receipt of Payment!
And, as always, if you would like to fund your $100.00+ order through a Bank that offers ZELLE, ASK ABOUT our ZELLE DISCOUNT!!
That DISCOUNT also applies to PayPal GIFT (Fee-Free), Check, and Money Order payments!!
Thank you for visiting. We hope you will find some vintage artifacts here on our site to add to your collection.
We look forward to serving your collecting needs, Ron & Kanae
ARTIFACT:
Fabulous 1930's federal-looking member badge of the Juvenile Crime Prevention Association of America. The badge shows an enameled US Shield in the center of a white enamel ring that reads: "POLICE DEPARTMENT". The star-shaped badge is topped with an eagle in nice relief detail and reads: "JUVENILE CRIME PREVENTION ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA" in blue enamel detail. The reverse is #'d "A86" and reads: "THIS BADGE NO. A86 IS THE PROPERTY OF THE JUVENILE CRIME PREVENTION ASS'N OF AMERICA THE RIGHT TO USE IS REVOCABLE AT ANY TIME". Members of the Association were those that were also members of the Sons of the American Legion, Boys Scouts, and other patriotic societies – at one time there were more than 200. Members of the Association were tasked with aiding minors and preventing crime.
