Nice WWII Portsmouth Navy Yard Submarine Worker Badge

This is a nice World War II submarine worker badge from Portsmouth Naval Shipyard on the Maine-New Hampshire state line. The badge shows a black and white photograph of the worker standing against a height chart and shows his number (17-758) instead of his name.

Circa World War II.

Approximately 2-1/4" in height and 1-5/8" in width.

Plated brass, clear celluloid, printed paper insert.

Vertical pin with drop-in locking swivel catch.

WHITEHEAD & HOAG.

This is from a war worker collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VFX93 LHEX1/11 SGEX9/11

6+ (Fine-Very Fine): The badge has areas of moderate oxidation and the celluloid is a bit warped.

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