ARTIFACT: This is an extremely rare circa 1930s Boston Police Captain Series #7 badge in the "clamshell" or sunburst radiator" style, with second type numbering on reverse. It looks to have possibly had only one re-plating sometime during its use. This badge style (Series #7) was used in the Massachusetts capital for just about 40 years, from 1920 until 1959. It is typical to find badges of this series with pin repairs and re-plating done during the period of use. The badge has the Seal of the City of Boston at center and is topped by the Arm of Miles Standish. It is numbered 1936 on reverse.

VINTAGE: Circa 1930s.

SIZE: Approximately 3-1/8" in height and 2-3/16" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Gold-plated brass.

ATTACHMENT: Vertical kick pin with forked locking catch.

MARKINGS: 1936

ITEM NOTES: This is from an old Massachusetts police and law enforcement badge collection that we will be listing more of over the next few months. MDBEX14 LHIEX7/14 SHIEX8/15

CONDITION: 8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The badge has some small areas of light wear; it looks to have possibly had only one re-plating sometime during its use.

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