Description
This is an unidentified wing that reads N.A.G.C. upon an enameled bull's-eye, and is possibly for an aviation or gliding group or club. The wing is in sterling silver and has a maker's mark showing an S with an arrow through it. This mark is on another wing we have for the Chicago Flying Club, so the C in NAGC could possibly stand for Chicago.
