This item meets ebay's criteria for obsolete transportation artifacts. It connotes no authority nor shoud it imply any. After the reorganization of the Railway Express Agency and in an effort to compete with other delivery companies, the corporation desinged a new logo abbreviated from the original style. sadly those efforts did not suceed and the company went out of business. This badge and cap is what was issued at the time. The badge is in excellent shape and backstamped by Bastian Brothers of New York with additional union bugs. It is the screwback type held firmly to the cap. Cap has black cap strap and two REA side buttons, also the new version. The article is good used and would fit in with a RR Transportation memorabilia collection of a bygone era. Size 7 1/2.
