He is pictured in full uniform, along with his club, badge and top hat. The tintype comes in a paper folder.

SIZE: Approximately 3-1/2" by 2-3/8" (tintype only).

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Tintype, paper matting folder.

ATTACHMENT: Folder.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a police and law enforcement collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. PTNR-GWJ-13 LCDEX8/13 SLBGEX7/16 SeVCDEX03/13/21
