Item Description
One of four examples we've seen of this badge known as an early 1950s General Mills premium conferring the rank of "Deputy Chief" in a Lone Ranger club. The badge was also used by Kellogg's Rice Krispies as an official Tim McCoy premium. This badge has the incredibly low serial number of "20" on the front panel beneath the beautifully embossed and detailed war bonnet. Reverse has pin attached to slide-off removable brass panel that serves as a secret compartment for messages. Beautiful and essentially Mint luster. We've never seen any other serially numbered premium with a number this low.
