Buster Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Here's more stuff I dug out of the cupboard, the holster is for my 38. Webley revolver, sadly the markings are all but invisible now so can't date it. ( I don't think the pistol lanyard has any real age to it) The knife is a British naval Jack knife , it's stamped with what I think was the owners name. The old whistle was made by metropolitan (made in England) and is attached to a chain with a leather fob with a small button hole. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leon21 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Nice little group, The whistle "Metropolitan" ( Made in England ) often referred to as the General Service Whistle ( GSW ) or the Police Whistle, made by J. Hudson & Co from early 60s/70s. A good source of information on the GSW whistle is ( The General Service Whistle Museum ).

Fritz Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 There are also many ARP marked examples to be found, many years ago 1916 (etc.) dated pieces could be found at an affordable price. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
