Collector .45

I recently acquired this NS Meyer 3" Command Pilot Wing. Wing badges are a little out of my area of expertise so I am looking for a few opinions on this badge. The wing measures a good three inches and the pin-back catch opens to forty five degrees or so. It's features seem consistent with wings from the 1940's to me however having read that a great deal of wings are faked, I am not completely sure on this set. 

Thanks

I don't see a sterling mark so possibly a plated brass wing.  A very nice vintage wing.

I have one like that but mine has an open C catch not the roller catch like yours.  I've always liked these early pattern Meyer wings.  Nice, solid wing.  Congrats.
