Crude theater made paratrooper wing pick up

Recommended Posts

I got this on eBay with a BIN option.  If I were to guess it is a post war Japanese occupation era piece based on the pin back assembly.  However I've never come across a Japanese made occupation era cast wing like this before so who knows.

Dennis,

I agree with you. It does look more like a Japanese occupation era badge than the typical sand cast Vietnamese wings that are almost all clutchback.

Probably came from a lesser known shop keeper. Nice find.
