Mervyn Mitton Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2009/post-6209-1237473267.jpgI am enclosing an attachment of a tipstaff for the middle Victorian period - 1850 - 1860's. This was carried on the belt in a leather case - next picture - by Inspectors and Superintendents. Hiatt's , the famous handcuff makers , produced this pattern. This particular tipstaff was for an Inspector of the Leeds Police.I will post other images if members are interested.Mervyn Mitton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Wolfe Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Hello Mervyn,Thanks for posting the tipstaff, you have peaked my interest.Please post more on this topic. From the prices I doubt I will ever see any in my collection but this forum is as much, or more, about knowledge than anything else.RegardsBrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
