1940s Eastern Air Lines Pilot Wing in Bullion

This is an early 1940s Eastern Air Lines pilot wing. The badge reads EASTERN AIR LINES and shows a red hawk soaring against two tones of blue.

Circa 1940s.

Approximately 1-1/4" in height and 3-3/4" in width.

Wool felt wing embroidered in bullion threads with brass and enamel details and mesh backing.

Single screw post with backing holding medallion.

None.

This is from an airlines collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VACEL03 LFBEX5/11

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The wing shows some light wear and there some light tarnishing to the bullion.

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