Default Kamloops City Police British Columbia, Canada pre 1938

Here is small selection of Kamloops City Police which was taken over by the British Columbia Provincial Police in 1938. This force usually had about 4 serving members at anyone time. I have visited the local Kamloops City archives but sadly there are no details on badges used by this force. You can note that on the buttons Kamloops is spelt with an "N" which is the spelling that appears on all three.

If anyone else has Kamloops City Police items I would be very interested in seeing. Thanks Greg

Greg, that is a very nice group. I must admit to never hearing of Kamloops before. Thanks for the post

Best

Very nice.
I seem to recall that Marway had several Kamloops City Police badges up for auction many years ago.
