This is my grandfathers dutch police hat who has been serving in Holland the Voorburg police for a lot of years. On the day of our immigration he passed away and this is the only thing i have from him.
The hat is in overall good condition. The cap is a bit worn as you can see. It looks like something has been lying on top of it and has melted in. Now you see the pattern. But besides that it is in good condition. The big label photographed says,
INTENDANCE
And the other label at the back says:
INTENDANCE DER RIJKSPOLITIE
The serial number is: 4885 and my grandfather was officer nr. 69.
The big metal medaillion on the front is the police emblem of the city Voorburg. It lies beside Den Haag (The Hague).
