Hi Son,
Ive sent a PM back to you.

I Think the display was in the museum in York, but it's been 25 yrs since we came to Canada, and probably ten yrs before that when I looked at the collection....so the details are getting fuzzy.
We'll see what I can find out.

Just googled Truncheon collection, York, and a line or two turned up.;

.."York posseses a noted folk museum, based on large collection....Constable truncheons,....... fireplace fittings..." etc etc.
Hope this might help.

Had another look, & e-mailed York castle museum...seems the most likely spot.
Even if they don't have the truncheons, they have a fantastic weapons display!
