Vintage Railroad Badge Button Pin Pinback INTERBOROUGH Subway Elevated New York

Description

Hello. Up for consideration is a Vintage Original Obsolete Metal/Brass (magnet doesn't stick) IRT Employee Badge that's in Excellent Condition. Looks all original showing signs of use, wear and age but I don't see any broken or damaged parts ("C" Catch is missing...see photo 3). Badge is quite shiny/reflective with excellent patina/color. Measures approximately 2.25 inches in diameter.
The IRT Company was the private operator of the original underground New York City Subway line that opened in 1904 as well as earlier elevated railways in New York City. The IRT was purchased by the city in June 1940.
