Early 1960s Air Mali Bullion Flight Crew Hat Badge

This is a flight crew hat badge in sage velvet and gold bullion threads for Air Mali, which began operation in 1960. The badge shows a wreath of leaf fronds with what seems to be a salamander-like figure at center.

Circa early 1960s.

Approximately 2-1/8" in height and 2-1/4" in width and 7/16" in depth.

Velvet, cotton backing, filling, bullion threads.

This is from an airlines collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAJL01 LHEX11/10 SHEX3/17

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): Badge shows very light tarnish and light fading.

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