Please post details and photos and hopefully, I will be able to help. Yes - there is a very good ref. book - I wrote it !!!
'The Policeman's Lot' Published by Quiller Press in 1985. There are copies in most libraries and under the title, a number of booksellers sell copies or, I probably have some spare ones in Bournemouth. I look forward to seeing the pictures.

Tipstaffs are so uncommon, that many people do not realise the variety of shapes and sizes they in which they can occur. This display case used to be full- however, I have sold a lot in recent years. No.6 - on bottom - is a similar Glasgow Det. Office that I posted some time ago, but this one is a Malacca cane handle and is longer. The one on the far right has a silver plaque with the name and rank (Lt.) of an army officer. He may have been provost Corps,but ones named to the military are very rare. With most of the remaining collection, these are in the UK. Hope they are of some interest?
