WW1 Borough of Salford Special Constable Constabulary Police Mufti Enamel and Gilt Lapel / Cap Badge

Enamel good except for one slight line knocked out just before the letter "E" in Constable. Unusually, fitted with a small brass slider that has been truncated. Stamped '501' below the slider. No sign of ever having been fitted with lugs or a pin brooch. Possibly also worn in a cap although Wilkinson and Cowdell suggest a much larger and impressive white metal badge as the cap badge (see p118, Fig 4).

Wilkinson & Cowdell 'Special Constabulary Insignia of England & Wales' (2nd Edn) p118, Fig 1 refers (but fitted with slider).
