PITTSBURGH, PA. W.C. PATENTED" and hand-scratched letters: "FLH, AA, AR" and the outer edge border is nickel.

Circa 1900.

Approximately 2" x 1-7/8".

Celluloid, brass, nickel.

Vertical pin with 'C' type catch.

"HEEREN BROS. & CO. PITTSBURGH, PA. W.C. PATENTED", "FLH, AA, AR"

This is from a railroad and railway collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. TAAX95 LCFEX2/16 TRVABEX01/20

7+ (Very Fine+): The badge shows moderate wear and some separation of the nickel and celluloid though much of the celluloid details remain intact, overall very fine condition.

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