Item Description
Hawks was a skilled aviator who was an air instructor during WWI and who gave future aviatrix Amelia Earhart her first airplane ride in 1920. He held numerous speed and distance records. By 1935, he had his own radio program. Each of these is a brass ring with adjustable bands. The first has propeller and wing logo surrounded by "Capt. Frank's Air Hawks." Luster is off the lower bands but these remain with clean brass finish and top retains vast majority of the luster. Second ring includes his high relief portrait accented by a propeller to each side reading "Capt. Hawks Sky Patrol." This ring has beautiful highly reflective and NM brass luster.
