New York City Police Department 12th Precinct circa 1898-1916. This is a vintage picture of a Police Officer in the early 1900’s from the NYPD. The Officer must have been of some significance because it is a very large picture with a very ornate frame. The inner picture is 15” x 20”. The outer frame is 26” x 30”. The NYPD Shield Desk records do not go back to 1898. The Officer’s Shield number is # 3821. You can see the number 12 on the Officer’s left collar. The hat badge is the New York Flag emblem.
