No town, city or borough shall require a license fee from any resident of this state who has resided within the state for a period of two years next preceding the date of application for such license and who is a veteran who served in time of war, as defined by section 27-103, for the privilege of buying, selling or vending goods, wares or merchandise within its limits; provided lapel pins, buttons, flowers, small flags and similar novelties and books and magazines shall not be construed to be goods, wares or merchandise within the meaning of this section. Each such town, city or borough may defer issuance of such license for a period not to exceed seven days for the purpose of investigation. Each such veteran engaged in any of said occupations shall produce his discharge, certificate of honorable discharge from the service or a copy thereof certified by the town clerk from the records of the town where such discharge or certificate of discharge is recorded as provided in section 12-93, for inspection, together with a certificate from the town clerk that the applicant is a resident of the state, upon the demand of any proper officer of any town, city or borough in which he is pursuing any of said occupations and, if he fails to do so, he shall not be entitled to any privilege under this section. Any person who makes a false representation for the purpose of availing himself of the privilege of this section shall be fined not more than twenty-five dollars.
