Circa 1975.

Gold-filled with enamel, printed oaktag.

Two posts with push-pin style backings.

Wing: 1/10 10K and maker's mark; card: L. G. BALFOUR CO. ATTLEBORO, MASS.

This is from an airlines collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. TRBEX02 LBDEX11/10 SBDEX10/12

8 (Excellent-): Wing shows very light wear and tarnish; card is creased in a few spots.

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