Item Description
The one Australian button reads "R.M.S. Queen Mary/Sorlie's." The light gray areas on the cream background seemingly depict clouds. Only light surface wear. Exc. The first two jewelry pieces consist of figural die-cuts each with a pair of cut-outs where real photos are placed. The first has a silver luster front and is for "Queen Elizabeth" second has brass luster and is for "Queen Mary." Next are a pair of brass tie bars with attached frames holding celluloids. The first oval pictures "Queen Elizabeth" and the second rectangle pictures "Queen Mary." Minor luster loss. Next is an oval pin with back reading "Made In England/Sterling Silver." Front of this has an oval celluloid depicting "RMS Queen Elizabeth." The celluloid has shrunk just a hair over the years and if the piece is turned upside down the celluloid cover will fall off. It still displays Mint. Next is a rectangular similar piece marked on the reverse "England Sterling" this features "RMS Queen Elizabeth" against a pattern of prismatic blue butterfly wings. NM. Last are a pair of enamel pins one for "Queen Elizabeth" and one for "Queen Mary." Both of these are Mint. The nicest and best group of souvenir pins we've ever seen for these famous ships. All are c.1930s.
