Found this enameled gem in a bag for $1. Omaha Chauffeurs club from 1908. Appears to the the first badge from Nebraska. No clue on value but have done exceptionally well on some early chauffeur badges in the last.

That is cool. I have a thing for chauffers' badges myself. Inexplicable -- i just like them.

I found my father's chauffeur's driver's license from Colorado in the 1960s in a box and thought that it was cool until he told me that he had to have a chauffeur's license to drive a taxi.
