    "Vintage 1950s 1960s Lorioli Alfa Romeo Lapel Pin.

    This is a vintage cloisonné lapel pin, manufactured by Lorioli of Milano, Italy, either in the 1950's or early 1960's for Alfa Romeo.

    It is NOT a pin back lapel pin but one that is to be worn in the button hole of the lapel.

    The logo measures some 13 millimeter in diameter."

    Hugs to kyratango, who has unlimited knowledge of all kinds of things!

      The next time you go out on the town, wear a purple, pin-striped suit with your new LAPEL PIN. Be sure to wear a matching fedora and two-tone brogans. And a long, thin cigarette holder, even if you don't smoke (just don't light it!). Finish off the ensemble with a long gold-tone fob chain and small, perfectly round sunglasses in thin, gold-tone wire frames, ala John Lennon. Oh, wait! And suspenders. Not a belt, but suspenders. Purple suspenders. You'll turn all the guys' heads and be the envy of every gal, I'm sure! [;>)

      Or, wear a tight, camouflage tank-top and matching short-shorts and military boots. Top it off with you lapel pin attached to a khaki beret, and you'll turn my head until I'm so dizzy I can't see straight! [;>)))))

      Well, there you go, Effy, wear just the glasses! But where would you put that lapel pin, then?!!? [;>))))))

      NevadaBlades - the pin can hang from my bandana....hee hee....
    11. NevadaBlades, 8 years ago
