Description

Nice collection of Five antique police truncheons/a tipstaff. They span the 19th century with some early examples, c1830, through to the end of the century. Three of the five are painted and two are plain wood. One of them is a shorter tipstaff used for ceremonial occasions by senior officers. The painted examples are decorated with a coat of arms, initials 'B' and roman numerals 'IV', designating the various Kings/Queens the officers would have served. For instance the 'IV' designation would have been for King William IV, who reigned the UK between 1830-1837.Overall condition is as you would expect from examples of this age which have seen active use with some rubbing/fading/loss to the paint and various marks, dents, scratches etc to the wood. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to view the items.

I will happily ship worldwide. The price includes FREE UK postage/ FREE shipping to Europe.

Sizes : The length of the truncheons is approximately 33cm long for the tipstaff, 43cm, 54cm, 55cm and 56cm respectively.
