WWI Squadron Indian Head Pilot Wings Sterling Silver

During WWI many pilots made squadron pins and many unauthorized items for wearing on their uniforms. The jewelers in Paris were more than willing to help to take some of the hard earning money form the American boys. This is a museum quality reproduction of one very rare such wing. While it is not known much about the wing , one thing for certain it is very beautiful. The Indian head in the center is form the 93rd Aero Squadron. This wing is 4 1/4 inches wide made in sterling silver mounted on a wool covered brass plate. This wing is very distinctive and would fit into any WWI aviation collection.
