FD ITEMS ON E BAY.

SOME BADGE INFO FROM A COLLECTOR SITE..... I am not sure if the New York State portion refers to only Police or FD also.... QUOTE.... Laws governing the sale of badges vary.

Federal law makes it illegal to possess a current-issue federal badge, unless it was issued to someone as a member of that specific service, such as the FBI or Secret Service.

While most states, including Pennsylvania, do not have laws governing the sale of state and local badges, a few do:

? Texas bans selling Department of Public Safety or Texas Ranger badges.

? Florida allows only active or retired police officers to buy badges.

? New York state law prohibits selling a New York badge to a state resident, whether online or in person.....UNQUOTE.

April 1941 WNYF... very rare.... ....... in the small photo of the arson article it mentions arson Fires being set in "perambulators" in the public hallways....this was a term for an old time baby carriage... years ago in the basement level of the group of early low rise projects "Williamsburg Houses"  http://www.nyc-architecture.com/WBG/wbg034.htm built around 1936 to 1938 in Williamsburg BKLYN each bldg had a room for baby carriage storage....the door would be labeled "Perambulator Room" always sounded pretty ominous if you did not know what it meant ....... www.ebay.com/itm/APRIL-1941-WNYF-WITH-NEW-YORK-FIREMEN-NYC-FIRE-DEPT-MAGAZINE-2ND-YEAR-/261375250570?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cdb2dd08a
