Property Identification Equipment

Programs that loan engraving equipment to people who want to etch their driver's license or other easily traceable identity card number onto their television sets, video and stereo equipment, tools and other portable valuables in order to discourage theft or burglary, to assist in the identification and recovery of these items in case of loss and to aid in the conviction of criminals who are caught with identifiable stolen property in their possession. Property identification programs usually also provide window stickers which warn potential thieves that valuables are marked and can be identified.
