John Wayne in Rio Bravo - Sheriff Presidio County, TX Badge story inside the box:
John Wayne was born Marion Mitchell Morrison on May 26, 1907 in Winterset, Iowa. He acquired his nickname “The Duke” from his childhood dog, Big Duke. His film career spanned 5 decades from 1926 to 1976. Throughout his career, he acted in, directed, or produced over 250 films. In Rio Bravo he portrays Sheriff John T. Chance who along with his deputies - a disgraced drunk and a cantankerous old cripple - must find a way to hold out against an evil rancher’s hired guns until the Marshal arrives.

What is on the back of the badge?

Can I get a discount by purchasing multiple badges?
Yes, we offer quantity discounts! Discounts are listed near the ADD TO CART button. You can mix and match badge styles to reach discount levels.
I'd like to request a special finish or plating. Is that possible?
No, all finishes/platings are done at the factory level and it is not possible for us to change it. We cannot make antique badges shiny or vise versa.
Can I customize any badge?
No, the way you see the badge in the picture is how the badge is and it cannot be changed. We do offer a line of badges that are blank for customization. These badges can be engraved with your personal text or images in the designated engraving areas only.
What is “Double-Stamped” Brass?
A badge that is stamped out of brass first has a mold or die created for each side of the design. Next a block of brass is placed between the molds and the design is "double stamped" simultaneously on both sides using many tons of pressure. This process pushes and presses the brass up and out to form the badge.
Why Brass instead of Pewter?
Brass is stronger and more durable than pewter. Brass is an alloy metal of copper and zinc. Pewter is an alloy metal of primarily tin. Tin is a relatively soft metal and because of this pewter can scratch and bend easily.
