Yuma Territorial Prison Guard Badge story inside the box: The cells of Arizona’s Yuma Prison were dug out below ground level, and had no roofs to shelter prisoners from the sweltering sun of the Arizona Desert. Not only were these jailbirds exposed to extreme heat up to 115 degrees, they also had to face dangerous venomous enemies such as Black Widows, Rattlesnakes, Scorpions, Centipedes and even Gila Monsters! What a picture of Hell on Earth! One time, a man put his boots on without looking inside, and was bitten by a desert centipede. His leg went gangrenous and had to be amputated.

Each high quality Old West replica badge is crafted out of brass and steel. They are double-stamped then silver plated. Next, each Old West replica badge is individually hand finished for a unique antique look.

Can I get a discount by purchasing multiple badges?

Yes, we offer quantity discounts!  Discounts are listed near the ADD TO CART button. You can mix and match badge styles to reach discount levels.

 

I'd like to request a special finish or plating.  Is that possible?

No, all finishes/platings are done at the factory level and it is not possible for us to change it.  We cannot make antique badges shiny or vise versa.

 

Can I customize any badge?

No, the way you see the badge in the picture is how the badge is and it cannot be changed.  We do offer a line of badges that are blank for customization.  These badges can be engraved with your personal text or images in the designated engraving areas only.

 

What is “Double-Stamped” Brass?

A badge that is stamped out of brass first has a mold or die created for each side of the design. Next a block of brass is placed between the molds and the design is "double stamped" simultaneously on both sides using many tons of pressure. This process pushes and presses the brass up and out to form the badge.

 

Why Brass instead of Pewter?

Brass is stronger and more durable than pewter. Brass is an alloy metal of copper and zinc. Pewter is an alloy metal of primarily tin. Tin is a relatively soft metal and because of this pewter can scratch and bend easily.

WOW! Your badges came in the mail this week, and boy were we ever pleased. Not only did we receive them sooner than we expected, the quality was better than expected as well. We are very happy with the purchases. The history of the badge is an added bonus that has made these gifts extra special! Thank you so much for the ease of ordering, quick turn around and quality keepsakes.
