No place is ever hunted out, as this permission has been pounded a couple dozen times... This piece was on its side, and pretty deep....

From what I've read, 1940's to 1960's?... I bet my Dad would recognize it.... Awesome!

That was a badge of honor... and the 5th grade girls just loved a guy with a badge (and an orange safety belt)

It's in remarkably great shape. Good find.

Nice addition to your display. Looks like an old vehicle registration certificate plate below it. I too had found one and I have tried to track down the automobile type,year and owner but hit dead ends.

From what I understand, the 2 holes were from the little nails, that attached to the wooden dashboard on those old cars...
I would love to get a hold of old Tallahassee records, that would be cool.
