It looks like something that you might of had to save box tops of cereal and send them in for the prize. You might Google box top prizes from the 50’s?
|
I grew up in the 50s, I never saw anything like it.
|
Some of the vintage airline pins have one wing like this one appears to. Might want to check those out.
|
Could it be an Art Deco pin for a hat.
|
At first look it reminded me of an early gas station emblem??

Mobil Gas emblem was Pegasus.

It looks a little like a flight attendant pin too. Here are more on ebay (you have to scroll down):
https://www.ebay.com/bhp/flight-attendant This one is from Family Airlines: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Family-Airl...-/252016784877 and from Pan Am: https://www.etsy.com/listing/6205898...SABEgIzzPD_BwE edit: just found these: http://www.jkmilitaria.com/Comav.html I haven't found yours though, maybe it is a child's version or super hero version like suggested above. |
Thank you, Mindless, for your searches. The orig owner of the button box is long deceased, but I'm sure she was not associated w/an airline (almost sure!). However, she could have picked the pin up somewhere. "Tis a mystery", but thanks to the internet and all you wonderfully helpful people, I hope to find the answer.
