National Forest.

About the badges: The unique 1905 badge is over 2.25" high compared to the 1.6" USFS badges from other years.  In December 1906, the Washington Office ordered that only the Washington D.C. staff and Forest Supervisors could wear the big badge.  The big badge which had a round attachment so it could be placed onto a belt, rather than the pin-back type of design found on all the other types of USFS badges.

The 1906, 1907, and 1915 badges are all the same sizes as standard Forest Service badges.  The 1907 badge is made of copper, stamped 'Meyer & Wenthe, Chicago' on the back.  The 1915 badge is stamped 'St. Louis Button Company' on the back...Photos and historical information submitted by Mike Aust, Angeles National Forest, 4/18/05
