Note 141 — Insignia of the Uniformed Militia

Reading edition

This brass-struck rectangular plate carries the arms of the State of New York[141] with its familiar eagle-on-half-globe device. The whole is superimposed on a sunburst background. The plate originally was made for Militia, but it is conceivable that such a plate may have been worn by early uniformed police.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
