Roosevelt and Churchill approached Pan Am to form a subsidiary that would have outposts in Africa, and the venture became instrumental in supplying Allied troops in Egypt and Sudan. The pin is in sterling silver and is in a screwback style.

SIZE: Approximately 5/8" in length x 7/16" in height.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Sterling silver, enamel.

ATTACHMENT: Single screw post with disc backing.

MARKINGS: STER on reverse of pin; STERLING on backing.

ITEM NOTES: This is from an airlines collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VEJX12 LBCEX11/12 SBJJX03/31/23
