cwnorma Posted February 6, 2016 Share #3 Posted February 6, 2016 Tino, This style badge was probably first made during the WW1 era as a "sweetheart" item. They continued to be made well into the WW2 era. Some are hall-marked "WING" Unfortunately, short of getting if from the family, I do not know a way to definitively date these by timeframe. Perhaps some others may chime in. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tino Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks for your help Chris! I have a chance of buying this wing but wasn't sure if this was a (shirt size) pilot wing or a sweetheart item. Neat piece, thanks again for identifying this piece, Tino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
