Beautiful Late 1940s Colonial Airlines Pilot Cap Badge 2nd Issue

This is a circa late 1940s pilot cap badge, 2nd issue for Colonial Airlines. Originally christened in 1928 as Canadian Colonial Airways, Colonial was renamed May 1, 1942 and operated through the 1950s, when it merged with Eastern. The badge shows a rather minimalist seagull or wing at center.

Circa late 1940s.

Approximately 1-15/16" in height by 1-5/8" in width.

Gold-plated brass, enamel.

Single screw post with disc backing, two stabilization teeth.

None.

This is from an airline collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAJJX12 LCIEX7/12 SCEJX7/12

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The badge shows some minor abrasions.

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