APPRECIATED CONTRIBUTION


It is not Newark. It is not New Jersey. It is one heck of a nice badge.

This was acquired several months ago. The owner was very much aware of my collection   (I made him look at it all for thirty minutes straight) and he quickly promised to donate his for the display.

He presented it to me at a lunch we attend so there are around fifty witnesses that know it is now mine. I promise to treat it with respect. I have it under glass next to one from Boston.

While my interest is Jersey I like those that are gifts from places beyond NJ, especially when a lot of friendship comes with the donation.
