JJG there are several types of the Melvin Purvis badge.
I think the one that you found cost quite a few more box
tops than the "agent" or "inspector" version. Nice job.

That is one nice IHP! To come out of the ground that nice is pretty good! The ones I get around here are really fried in our acidic soil. Way to go!
