and certificate of authenticity
One of ACME most popular and enduring whistle designs is the ACME Metropolitan Police whistle. This is a whistle with a rich history, and an iconic look and sound that is all its own. Pre-1870, the London Metropolitan Police depended on heavy and cumbersome rattles to signal to each other over long distances. They were not particularly effective, and an alternative was needed. Joseph Hudson created the Metropolitan Police whistle after an unfortunate incident when a violin was dropped, producing an ear-splitting sound. The resulting whistle is an icon of the Metropolitan Police force’s history, one that revolutionized communications for Bobbies on the beat in its time.
It was on the back of the Metropolitan Police whistle that Joseph Hudson built his company in Birmingham, England and the range has continued to grow and develop since. Variations on the Metropolitan Police whistle have been popular among Scout and Guide groups internationally, as well as being the original trench whistle used during World War I. It produces a distinct, crisp and reliable sound when used correctly, and its durable design will give you years of faithful service.
