Original Item: One Only. In lovely matured condition this measures 17 ¾ inches in overall length and dates to the 1860s/1870s Victorian England. Painted truncheons are rare, as after 1900 the decorative painting was abandoned, however the Bobby on the beat in England even today carries a wood truncheon in a specially designed inside pocket in his uniform trousers.

Our Victorian example shows the remains of most of the paintwork including the decorative V.R. in script in gold/red letters. Beautifully turned wood handle. The handle is not stamped with a location or manufacturer.

A great addition to any Bobby Police collection, ready to display!
