Description
British UK Victorian police Billy Club made by Hiatt’s & Co. Ltd. Antique original Victorian era truncheon with Queen Victoria period proof mark; excellent overall condition, considering the age.
Original Victorian period manufacture police truncheon manufactured circa 1890-1900 by Hiatt’s & Co. Ltd. The truncheon is appropriately stamped with the maker’s name on the butt of the handle and on the leather hand strap. The body is prof-marked with the Victorian era “crown/VR” (Victoria Regina) acceptance proof mark as well. This is a well-preserved specimen in excellent overall condition; no chips or cracks on the wood; original leather strap is good, but it is literally hanging by a trad – see photos. Slightly used with original finish; this “Billy club” is about 15-1/2″ / 39.5 cm overall. This original UK Victorian police Billy Club has not been cleaned or tampered with in any way, it is in 100% original “as is” condition. These are the actual photos.
This original UK Victorian police Billy Club was part of the diverse collection of militaria items that I’ve recently purchased spanning from WW1 to the War in Vietnam. This personal collection contains many interesting items, some are unique, but there is just too much work to list it all at the same time. Please check out my site periodically for new arrivals; I’ll be listing more items in the next few weeks.
I have a number of original WW2 era American, British, and German militaria collectables, as well as several scarce WW1 and WW2 fighting daggers and trench knives from other countries available for sale – please take a look in the store’s Militaria section.
