Description

ARTIFACT:

This is a handsome and large circa 1910s or 1920s Watertown, Massachusetts Constable badge. It is shield-shaped and has a huge, detailed City Seal at its center. It looks as though the body of the badge may be/have been silver-plated (from the rainbow on front, tarnish on back), but the center is nickel-plated brass.

VINTAGE:

Circa 1910s-1920s.

SIZE:

Approximately 2-11/16" in height and 2-1/8" in width.

CONSTRUCTION / MATERIALS:

Possibly silver-plated brass body, nickel-plated brass center.

ATTACHMENT:

Vertical kick pin, C catch.

MARKINGS:

None.

ITEM NOTES:

This is from an early Massachusetts police and law enforcement badge collection that we will be listing more of over the next few months. TR@MEJX13 LAFEX11/13 SAFEX4/14

CONDITION:

7 (Very Fine): The badge appears to have had some recent polishing. I have cleaned off any residue to allow a metal patina to build back up.

GUARANTEE:

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
