I recategorized these. i didn't realize there was a Pins and Badges section!
My SCORE for the week...
These must have been the property of a longtime Chevy dealer. The one on the left is a Chevrolet Corvette Owner Pin, 10K. I read they stopped making them in 1967, the one I saw on ebay was starting at $99. # 2 reads Chevrolet Management Group, also 10K. Havent found much on that one, I'm thinking it's pretty rare. #3 is a 35 year pin, 2 diamonds and 1 sapphire, 10K also. Got them all for the CRAZY price of (yes you read that right) $12.oo. I didn't even haggle with her for that price. Gotta love charity antique shows! If anyone has more info on any of these, especially the management group pin, I'd love to hear from you.
