Fire Brigade Badge story inside the box: In the early days of many western towns, fires were fought using ladders and hand-operated pumps or even the infamous "bucket brigade" and most of the firefighters were volunteers.
The first paid firefighting company in the United States was founded in 1853.
Even after the formation of paid firefighting companies, there were disagreements and often fights over territory because insurance companies paid the company that put out the fire. New York City companies were famous for sending runners out with a large barrel to cover the hydrant closest to the fire in advance of the engines to prevent other companies from using it.

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 but the badge design itself cannot be changed.

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.
