Nice offering of World War II era US Army Air Corps and Naval Aviator wings. Quite the variety, with examples for command pilots, pilots, aircrewman, gunners, navigators, bombardiers, flight surgeons, observers, etc. Most date to the World War II era, but there are some post-war examples. Most wings are marked as sterling on reverse, or are marked by NS Meyer, Blackinton, Luxemburg New York, Hilborn & Hamburger (H&H), Amcraft, LGB STER, Amico, Orber, Moody Bros, K.G. Luke, etc. Most measure 3". Most are pinback, while others are clutchback. The wings exhibit varying patina, some with scattered blemishes. Some appear to have been polished. All appear to have functioning clasps. A very nice offering that would be an instant collection. CONDITION: Good-very good.
Item Dimensions: 16" X 13"
