5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book...great information., December 24, 2006

By	Justin Vanhalanger "www.geocities.com/justin_... (Cottage Grove, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am a recently new collector of police badges, and this book is amazing. I have learned new terminology and has even helped me with badges in general, not just LAPD badges. A must for anyone who collects police insignia.

5.0 out of 5 stars great reference for the badge collector or LAPD buff, September 3, 2000

This review is from: The Centurions Shield: Badges of the Lapd (Paperback)

This book provides excellent information about LAPD badges, ID cards, and insignia for the collector. It also covers badges from other city agencies as well as obsolete and prototype badges. However, I thought the best part of the book was the chapter on the history of the LAPD, starting with its days as a volunteer force in the mid 1800's. I would recommend it only to law enforcement buffs, LAPD personnel, and badge collectors.
