ARTIFACT: This is a Rare & Unusual WWII British Made USAAF Bullion Caterpillar Club Badge. These are quite rare, as I have only had one other. But the other was closer in design to the Switlik pin, whereas this seems to be a combination of the both the Switlik, with CATERPILLAR CLUB fully spelled out on it, and the Irvin, with the 2 red "eyes".  A very cool, and very rare, insignia. 

VINTAGE: Circa WWI.

SIZE: Approximately 1-7/8" x 1/2"

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Bullion, wire, and silk / cotton embroidery on woven wool with a linen backing

ATTACHMENT: To be sewn on.

MARKINGS: N/A

ITEM NOTES: This is from a USAAF collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. MAEJP20 LEIEX03/09/20

CONDITION: 8+ (Excellent - near Mint): The badge shows excellent to near mint condition and a very cool, and very rare, insignia.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
