About This Item

ACME Thunderer

Joseph Hudson a farm worker from Derbyshire moved to the city of Birmingham, like so many during the Industrial Revolution, and trained as a toolmaker.He was commissioned in 1883 by The London Metropolitan Police for an idea to replace the policeman’s rattle a cumbersome means of communication for the bobby on his “beat” (the name given to his patrol).The police tested his whistle on Clapham Common and were delighted when it was clearly heard just over a mile (1.6Km) distance.The rest is history. By the year 2000 sales had reached big numbers.The Acme Thunderer alone had sold over 200 million to 119 countries.

Afgelopen 2 weken waren we op diverse plekken: cachen in Uitgeest en omgeving, een snag the tag event in Naarden en een Cito in Lochem. In diverse logboekjes en op de events hebben we TBs gespot en ook een aantal TBs meegenomen om verder te laten reizen, waaronder deze. Happy caching!
