Item Description
This was a 1930s aviation-themed club sponsored by Belle Meade Shoe Co. The club operated through much of the 1930s and was advertised in model airplane magazines of the era and apparently, as this button documents, there were organizational efforts made through newspapers. Button names "Cambridge Chronicle". There is no back paper or maker name and the button could be from perhaps Illinois or Massachusetts. NM and displays Mint. Only example we've seen.
