siege1863 Posted March 9, 2009 Share #1 Posted March 9, 2009 I just purchased these wings. Not at all what I collect, but the $15.00 price was good enough to take the risk. What seem unusual about them is the "radiator" design for the shield. The only mark on the back is "coin silver." Are they good? Any idea of maker or time period? Thanks.

siege1863 Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted March 9, 2009 I see that some are reproduced but I did not see this design or with this type of fastener. Maybe still good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

militarymodels Posted March 9, 2009 Share #5 Posted March 9, 2009 These are good "Keep 'em flying" Pre WW2 / WW2 preiod miniature wings. They came in all kinds as full sizes did and in sterling as well. Regards, Lonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
none Posted March 10, 2009 Share #6 Posted March 10, 2009 These wings were sold as part of a group called "Keep them Flying" made in both coin and sterling. Most were made by Bell of New Mexico. This is an original WWII wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
