150th Anniversary Plate
Internal Re-sale

The 150th Anniversary Plate of the Force was produced in 1994 in a limited edition by Royal Worcester in the UK for the occasion. It proved to be a much treasured collector's piece and sold out a long time ago.

A limited number are now available from an internal source for re-sale to Force members at a very special price of $500 each.

The small profit made will go to the Police Welfare Fund.

Those interesting in placing orders can do so by contacting M Y To, APWO HQ of PS Branch on 2804-1109 before 2 February.

It is anticipated that the small stock will soon run out. Orders will be taken on a first-come-first-served basis.
