Description

This classic pin, crafted in an open edition and likely designed by Walt Disney Studios during World War II, features a captivating depiction of America’s women serving as Air Force Women’s Service Pilots or WASPs. Standing over six inches tall with various vibrant colors and silver edging around the badge's perimeter, it boasts a military-style single-post clutchback fastener. The design showcases an American woman in goggles flying with wings, reflecting the role she played ferrying warplanes from factories to airbases. Notably, some condition details suggest it might have been intended as a reunion pin for former WASPs and appears nearly mint. Historically, these women excelled in roles such as towing targets for anti-aircraft crews. Known colloquially as 'Fifinella', the gremlin spirit also animates this charming piece.
