OK... I just found the first emblem (from the collection) pictured on page 159 of R�decke's "Polizei-Abzeichen" (Vol. 2) 1918-1945. He states it is an example of the new Prussian Landeswappen from 2.10.1933. He says it was also the Tschako emblem according to RdErl.d.MdI. vom 18.7.1933. These dates seem oddly reversed to me. I do not have that citation.

Now, R�decke has some fake insignia and helmets in his books and the eagle seems to be a line drawing rather than a picture of the insignia on a Tschako. So, I don't know if this is correct or not.
