The
PICA Magazine started life in 1974 and was just a two page 'news sheet'.
Since then it has grown into a fully illustrated 32 page magazine
and is published three times a year, and also includes colour. The
magazine relies upon the membership to submit articles of interest,
which it publishes. Included in the magazine are regular items such
as members adverts, information requests, badge updates, book reviews
and swap meeting information. |

Howard
Ripley's book "Police Buttons" which appeared in 1983 provided
a record of all police forces in Great Britain and Ireland. Since
publication he has continued his research into this subject and this
has enabled him to prepare a second volume. This result is a work
featuring 268 clear line drawings of police buttons. Many of these
illustrate the buttons worn by the small police forces in the early
years of Queen Victoria's reign and which are now extremely rare.
The book is
priced at £6 sterling
Postage and
packaging is extra and the cost is shown below. Payment must be
