EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Ken Searle, a dedicated and esteemed police historian, proudly displays an intriguing collection of historic headgear and a decorated truncheon, showcasing the rich evolution of law enforcement uniforms and equipment throughout the 20th century. The image captures Ken, dressed in the tunic and winter helmet of the Truro City Police from the early 1900s to the 1930s. With a sense of nostalgia, he holds three distinctive helmets, each representing a significant era in police history. The first, a summer issue helmet from the same period, is placed to his left. In the center, a Second World War tin helmet, a symbol of protection during the tumultuous 1940s, is displayed. To his right, a helmet issued at the time of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953, which remained in use until 1960, adds a regal touch to the display. The decorated truncheon in Ken's hand, adorned with various insignia, is a testament to the order and discipline that have long been associated with the police force. This collection of historic items not only reflects the changing styles and materials used in police uniforms and equipment but also serves as a reminder of the dedication and service of those who have worn them. As a historian, Ken's passion for uncovering the stories behind these artifacts brings the past to life, allowing us to appreciate the history of our law enforcement agencies and the individuals who have served and protected their communities throughout the centuries.
