The predecessor of the Civil Aeronautics Authority (and later Administration), the Bureau of Air Commerce was established in 1934. Pilots were stationed at district headquarters around the United States, and the Southwest District was and is still headquartered at Fort Worth, Texas. The center of the wing is a nicely enameled red circle reading FORT WORTH with a stylized "A" at center.

VINTAGE: Circa 1930s.

SIZE: Approximately 15/16" in height and 3-3/16" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Plated brass with enamel.

ATTACHMENT: Horizontal pin with come-under locking swivel catch.

MARKINGS: N/A.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a civil aviation collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VIEX10 VBJJJX12/10 SAJJJX11/18

CONDITION: 7 (Very Fine): The wing has small areas of light to moderate wear and tarnish.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
