LOOKING FOR HELP ! CAN ANYONE IDENTIFY THIS BADGE?
If you know where this badge comes from please write to: "jerseychief@gmail.com"
I became the owner of this old Radiator Badge, while hunting for a similar item, from another City (Newark, NJ). I'm assuming that this badge is from the same time period, 1890 -1910, as my old hometown.
Comparing this, to one of my Newark "Rad's," it is much thinner. It has a similar pin and "C" catch on the rear.
The face of the badge has the markings "MASTER" and the word "POLICE." There is a number top left (27), and another bottom right (E 21). I have no idea what these markings mean.
Your help is appreciated identifying it. Thanks (jerseychief.gmail.com)
