Up for sale is a beautiful piece of authentic WWII-era Americana. This small, silver-toned patriotic lapel pin features a stylized, waving American flag filled with vibrant red, white, and blue cold enamel.
Unlike modern reproductions that feature pointed post needles or butterfly clutches, this genuine antique utilizes a fixed, solid buttonhole stud backing (also known as a screwless lapel button). Designed to slide directly into the stitched eyelet buttonhole of a vintage suit jacket or coat, this attachment type firmly places its manufacture date between the late 1930s and mid-1940s.
These pins were widely worn by civilians on the homefront during World War II to show solidarity, support the troops, and display patriotism during rallies and parades. A fantastic, wearable addition to any military, political, or vintage jewelry collection!
