Several of these recently appeared on EBay.
 

I picked this one up as I thought it might be possible to identify the North Wales Police Bobbies.

Billy Millington as the Training Sergeant in C Division and then as the Hawarden Inspector.  He was also an Inspector in Bridgend Training Centre in November 1971. A recruit recalls, he got me soaked playing a flighty drunk and gave me a good run around in the rain. On retirement from Police he taught at Hawarden High School for a few years.
