Smile What is this Badge??

Pappy- could you tell me what this badge was?? My dad said it could have been from a toy gun holster, I've done a search on this, found all kinds of other hopalong cassidy badges but nothing that looks like this one!! And what year was this from? Thanks in advance, Pappy

Indy, unless I am getting to old to see. I think you forgot to include the picture.

Ummmmmm- that's weird because I see it right above my name. But then again, I'm still having computer problems......anybody else not see it?

It was my computer not yours. It finally did show up.
Sorry about that.

INDY, You Dad is right. It came from the holster. Was on the holster with a piece of fringe in it at one time. From the early to mid 50's...PAPPY

Indy,

I am new to this forum, so let me first start by saying hello to you and Pappy.

It almost looks like this came from the spurs, but I would be willing to bet it's definitely part of the holster set. Attached are a couple of pictures to compare it to.

Hope this helps.

Mark

That's really cool, thanks sooo much for those pictures. Now I need to go back and see what other goodies I can find.
Thanks Pappy and Mark
