This auction is for a vintage Fire Department badge. Please examine photos for condition.
This is part of a recently purchased collection of several hundred vintage Fire badges. There are many badges that do not have the state listed on them. An attempt has been made, but unfortunately research does not always conclusively indicate where a badge is from. If you see a badge and you know what state/department it is from, please let me know and I will update the listing.
Check back weekly for new listings. I buy police and fire patch/badge collections, if you are looking to sell please let me know. 911collector.com is your source for Fire & Police Badges, Patches, License Plates and more!
Check my ebay store for 100's of additional items for sale.
I do not end auctions early, so please do not ask me to do so.
If you have questions, ask them before bidding and at least 24 hours prior to the auction ending.
If you would like to purchase multiple Buy it Now items, add them to your cart and then click on "Request Combined Shipping" prior to paying and I can send you a combined shipping discount. If you pay prior to receiving a combined invoice, there will be no discount.
Why do so many badges have the pin missing? Fire departments would often give collectors their old badges, but in order to prevent someone from wearing/using the badge they would remove the pin to make it more difficult to wear it on a uniform.
Payment is due within 48 hours of the auction ending. Bidders who do not pay will be reported to ebay and blocked from bidding on future items.
Sold for collectible purposes only, conveys no authority. Badge is obsolete, over 75 years old, and no longer used by the department.
Shipping: Now offering two options! Your choice of USPS Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box or USPS Ground Advantage in a sturdy cardboard box. If you win multiple auctions, please wait for me to send you a combined shipping invoice.
I try to ship items within 2 days of auction ending, but I am a Firefighter and can be at work for up to 48 hours, so it may take up to 3 business days to ship your item. Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
