Polished Brass Clicker

The ACME polished brass Clicker 470 or Cricket as it is sometimes known, has had a varied life. First designed as a child's toy, then adopted by jazz and big bands as a time signaller to keep the band in rhythm and then conscripted into the D-Day Landings as a signaller to friendly troops under the cover of dark. Sometimes referred to as the D-Day Clicker. The ACME Polished Brass Clicker is still made with all of the original tooling and presses in Birmingham.

Meet the Maker: ACME Whistles

Founded in Birmingham in 1870 by Joseph Hudson, ACME Whistles remains the world's largest and most famous whistle manufacturer, having produced over one billion whistles. Still handcrafted at their original Barr Street factory in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter, ACME invented the world's first police whistle in 1884, revolutionising Victorian policing on London's smoggy streets. Their iconic Thunderer sports whistle, first advertised in 1884, changed the game for referees worldwide and is now approved by FIFA and used globally. From the RMS Titanic's original ship's mates' whistles to dog training whistles trusted by champion trainers, ACME's precision engineering and hand-tooling using original machinery ensures each whistle receives meticulous attention from skilled craftspeople. Trusted by the Royal Navy, Ministry of Defence and RNLI, ACME Whistles represents 155 years of unparalleled British manufacturing excellence.
