Gorgeous 1890's LAW League of American Wheelmen New York State Division Lapel Pin

Gorgeous 1890's League of American Wheelman (L. A. W.), New York state division member lapel pin by O'Hara Watch Dial Company. The round, enameled lapel pin shows a spoked wheel with a blue faceted stone in the center and three lovely detailed wings stemming from the center of a wheel surrounded by the letters: "L A W". The outer edge reads: "NEW YORK STATE DIVISION". The reverse features a maker's mark that reads: "O'HARA DIAL CO. WALTHAM, MASS."

Circa 1890

Approximately 5/8" in diameter

Enameled brass, with gilt embellishments
