In 1909 Wilbur Wright traveled to France to demonstrate his flying machine with the hops of getting orders for this new marvel. His flying was the rage of the day and as was common in that era, souvenir pins were made to honor the event and sell to the public. Just as we can buy pins at air shows today. This is a museum quality reproduction in sterling silver of an extremely rare pin from Arras France.
Love this site! I got a nice set of Challenge coins and gave them to Chief Valrey (CW4) from 5th. He was pleased as punch to get them, as he's been retired for quite some time. I'm giving this one to a buddy's son. John has passed, and his son never got his old Special Forces Challenge Coin. So this one is going to him. Thank you guys.
