ARTIFACT:

This is a beautiful, completely handmade 1920's USAS United States Air Service Pilot Wing made in 900 Silver in the city of Chiclayo Peru.

The US Air Mission to Peru began in 1924, and this gorgeous wing was no doubt commissioned by one of the early USAS Pilots of that Mission, as a souvenir to bring home to his wife, as MY WIFE is nicely scratched into the back of the wing. Sadly, we do not know who the Pilot was who commissioned this unique Wing almost a century ago. 

VINTAGE: 1920s.

SIZE: Approximately 3/4" in height x 2-15/16" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: 900 Silver.

ATTACHMENT: Horizontal Kick type pin with Tube Type catch and Special support standing pin.

MARKINGS:

900 PE
CHICLAYO

MY WIFE (Hand engraved)

ITEM NOTES: This is from a United States Air Service badge collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-RLB-MDJJX03/09-23 LBCGEX09/06/23 SBJJJX03/04/25

CONDITION: 8+ (Excellent): The wing shows minor wear and tarnish. Overall, it is a unique and beautiful wing.

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