Description
This shield police embroidered patch features a striking railroad heritage design honoring this small Iowa town’s history along the transcontinental railway, designed for the Adair Police Department—serving the Adair County community in southwest Iowa known for its place in Wild West history as the site of Jesse James’s first train robbery in 1873.

Shape & Base: Classic shield/tombstone shape approximately 4.5″ tall with rounded shoulders and pointed bottom, featuring a purple/blue twill center field with a distinctive triple-border design—gold merrowed outer edge, red middle band, and gold inner accent creating a rich, layered appearance.

Top Section: A magnificent golden spread-wing eagle crowns the design, rendered in rich gold thread with detailed feather definition and wings extending outward in the classic American heraldic posture. Below the eagle, “POLICE” appears in red block lettering against a gold field.

Center: A circular emblem with red border showcases the town’s railroad heritage. “ADAIR” arches across the top of the gold circle, with a detailed vintage steam locomotive rendered in blue/purple thread at center—commemorating the historic railroad that put this small Iowa town on the map. “IOWA” curves along the bottom completing the town identification. Golden wheat sheaves flank the circular emblem on both sides, symbolizing Iowa’s agricultural heartland and the bounty of the prairie.
