Item Details

Description

A Pennsylvania Railroad police badge with a small "1291" stamped on the top with RAILWAY POLICE on top and P.R.R.CO. On the bottom. It has what I think is the state seal of Pennsylvania in the center. It measures 2 1/4" by 3 1/8". It's big and heavy. It has an American Railway Supply Company hallmark stamped on the reverse. It has a pin that swings into a "J" shaped slot on the reverse.

Years ago I was advised to avoid police badges because they were being reproduced and other fantasy pieces also hit the market. I have never learned how to spot fakes and it seems like everyone likes to think that they are experts on this ability. On a good side all of the police badges we are selling are from one long time collector friend of mine and I know he would not intentionally buy or sell a fake.
