Unknown pins .
Hello . Here we have a grouping of items that are unfamiliar to us .
The one has JMG and a small " aladin's lamp" on the top as well as number " 34 " . Not sure about the propeller pin . The other 2 with the numbers appear to us as some sort of length of service pin . Thanks for any suggestions . |

The star with the number 5 in is from the Boy Scouts of America. The stars are worn in different sections and have different backing coloured disks on them to denote which section the person is from. The UK Scout Association issued similar ones with smaller numbers - initially with a cloth background disk, then a plastic one before finally moving to woven sew on badges - but these are not worn in all sections.

The winged propeller is a WW2 era USAAF sweetheart pin. The basic winged propeller with out the ribbon on it was the collar insignia for officers, and worn on the lapels of the uniform tunic.

Hello. Thanks for the information on those , we appreciate your help .
After a bit of cleaning on the USAAF pin we found " Sterling " stamped on the back . The JMG pin has " Wright and Street Inc. Chicago" on its reverse . I forgot to check that before posting our enquiry . Thanks. |
