My first badge....happy me!

[BigWaveDave]

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!

Cool find. Looks like they stopped using "patrolman" in the 1970's according this guy- School Safet Patrol Badge Collection

Good Job BWD! Very nice

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.

Badges? We ain't got no badges! We don't need no badges! I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!

Sorry, couldn't resist!

Nice dig Dave, That will look nice on this year's Christmas tree. That badge will add to any display.

Yes Sarge...it already looks great!

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.

 

[BigWaveDave]

Hold on....

 

[deershed]

Sweet badge!! I found the miniature version of that badge last year, a AAA pin.
Congrats on a good one!!

 

[BigWaveDave]

Here is that...

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.
