ARTIFACT: This is a minty circa 1910s or 1920s Pennsylvania State Police badge by C.G. Braxmar of New York. 


The badge is numbered 8 and has a large eagle topping the shield.

This Pennsylvania State Police, which was an Incorporated entity, was similar to the Ohio State Protective Association, and vaguely related to the Horse Thief Detective Associations prolific in the Midwest in the 1st half of the 20th century (and earlier), but it was not actually part of the State Agency, the Pennsylvania State Police. 

It existed primarily to provide private policing and security services in rural areas of the state that were not well canvased by state or local Law Enforcement Agencies.   

VINTAGE: Circa 1910's - 1920's.

SIZE: Approximately 2-7/16" in height and 1-11/16" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Nickel-plated brass.

ATTACHMENT: Vertical kick pin with C catch.

MARKINGS: 8 on front; C.G. BRAXMAR CO. 242 WEST 55 ST. N.Y. on reverse.

ITEM NOTES: This is from an old Pennsylvania State Police badge collection that we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAJJX14 LHIEX3/14 SLDIEX04/06/21 SCJJX10/24/21

CONDITION: 9+ (Near Mint-): The badge is minty.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
