British Transport Police Male Constable's / Sergeant's Blue Serge Helmet With British Transport Police Helmet Plate, Size 7 1/8". 13907:19 - 13907:19 The British Transport Police Force has its roots very early in the history of the British police service. The earliest record of a railway police force pre-dates the formation of the Metropolitan Police (usually recognised as the first modern police force in England & Wales), by at least 4 years. No-one really knows just how many individual railway, dock and canal police forces existed in the 19th Century, but they probably numbered over a hundred. Largely unsung and in many cases, unremembered these early forces combined to form the modern BTP and give it one of the richest histories of any police force in Britain. This is a good condition, male Constable's / Sergeant's helmet of the British Transport Police. It has a blue serge 2 panel blue body, with a chromed rose boss and a British Transport Police Queen’s Crown (QE II) white metal helmet plate. The inside has a fully adjustable sweat band and patent leather chinstrap. The sweatband is ink stamped with the size "7 1/8", on the inside of the band it has a handwritten name "Bartlett". The price for this helmet includes UK delivery. Sn 13907:19 £155.00 |

It has a blue serge 2 panel blue body, with a chromed rose boss and a Kent Constabulary Queen’s Crown (QE II) helmet plate with red enamel centre.
