1920 PALESTINIAN BRITISH COLONIAL PALESTINE POLICE FORCE CAP BADGE by DOWLER. Hat badge of the Mandatory Palestine Police force with slider-back, circa. 1920’s, by William Dowler of Birmingham; size: 30 x 48mm; weight: 9.9g. The Palestine Police Force was a British colonial police service established in Mandatory Palestine on 1 July 1920, when High Commissioner Herbert Samuel’s civil administration took over responsibility for security from General Allenby’s Occupied Enemy Territory Administration (South). The Egyptian Expeditionary Force had won the decisive Battle of Gaza in November 1917 under the newly appointed Commander-in-Chief of Palestine, Edmund Allenby. Following the Battle of Jerusalem in December, Allenby accepted the surrender of the city, which was placed under martial law, and guards were posted at several points within the city and in Bethlehem to protect sites held sacred by the Christian, Muslim and Jewish religions. Following a decisive British victory at the Battle of Megiddo, the Ottoman Empire formally surrendered on 30 October 1918, leaving the British in complete control of Palestine. Headquarters of the police in Jerusalem were initially set up in the Russian Compound, along Jaffa Road, where assistant provost marshal was assisted by the British Military Police. Initially Palestine was administered in the southern district of the Occupied Enemy Territory Administration (OETA). The Palestine Police was founded with the establishment in July 1920 of the civilian administration of the British Mandate under high commissioner Herbert Samuel. The first police commander was Lieutenant Colonel P. Bramley, OBE, with the title of Director of Public Security and with the rank of Commandant of Police and Prisons. Legislative authority was granted eight months after-the-fact with Police Ordinance 1921, although the PPF’s authority was never challenged legally. All items are guaranteed genuine!

THE TREATIES ENDING WW1 CREATED MORE WARS. THE COLLAPSE OF THE AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN EMPIRE CREATED MANY NEW CONFLICTS BETWEEN PEOPLES WHO HAD LONG BEEN SUPPRESSED FROM THEIR NATIONAL AND REGIONAL IDENTITIES. IN 1918 A UKRAINIAN NATION WAS DECLARED IN LVOV. THE LARGE POLISH POPULATION REVOLTED AND BATTLES WERE JOINED BETWEEN IRREGULAR POLISH MILITIA CALLED THE “EAGLETS” AND THE REMNANTS OF THE UKRAINIAN SICH RIFLEMEN UNIT WHICH HAD BEEN A REGULAR MILITARY UNIT OF THE EMPIRE. DIPLOMATIC EFFORTS TO END THIS FAILED AND IN MAY OF 1919 A POLISH ARMY INVADED AND OCCUPIED LVOV AND THE SURROUNDING AREA. LVOV IS ONE OF THE MOST OCCUPIED CITIES OF EUROPE. POLES, UKRAINIANS, GERMANS, ROMANIANS, SOVIETS ALL HAD TURN JUST DURING THE 20TH CENTURY. MUCH MORE VARIATION BEFORE THAT. THIS PIECE OF EXTREMELY RARE TRENCH ART WAS MADE BY A POLISH SOLDIER IN MAY OF 1919 WHEN THE POLES OCCUPIED THE CITY. IT IS MARKED LVOV MAY 1919 IN POLISH. A BEAUTIFUL GARLAND SURROUNDS THE CASE WITH SHIELD AND DATES IN TWO. THE SHELL IS A 76.2mm IMPERIAL RUSSIAN CONTRACT FIELD GUN TYPE MADE IN ENGLAND IN 1917.
