Andy Griffith Show Screen Worn and Screen Matched Badge

Hey guys....I know it’s not an autograph but I thought you might want to see this. I’ve been a collector of game used sports jerseys and screen used movie and tv memorabilia for a long time. Recently I found my holy grail: Sheriff Andy Taylor’s screen worn sheriffs badge. I purchased it from the widow of Richard O. Linke who had the badge for 50 years. Unbelievably and luckily, I definitively screen matched it to four episodes including the final appearance of Barney Fife. I truly feel this is museum grade and one of the most important pieces of memorabilia in American television history. I hope you enjoy the photos.
