Police Truncheons

[Gavin Nugent]

G'day Andy,

If I saw this posted 3 weeks ago I could have pointed you to a great auction in the UK with a few of these examples in it amongst about 60 other antique police truncheons. I don't buy them but still come across them, I'll send you a PM when I next see one.
Apart from that, I know the Brisbane police head quarters has a museum has examples of old trucheons and restricted weapons on display, have you tried police museums in larger citys in England?
Another suggestion that I have found very useful over the years is email larger museums too, they can provide a inventory list by email, you can then indicate which ones you would like to view, the curators are always very helpful and for the most part can arrange with some notice the oppurtunity to visit behind the scenes and handle inventory never seen on display. This will give you a chance to measure weigh and photograph all that you need.

regards

Gav
