    Oh, no, not another TWM!

    It's a well made example, highly vaulted, with a very bright finish, maybe chrome. The enamel is thinner than my BB&C and the underlying metal I'd call a "strawberry" pattern.

    What I find interesting is the pin and catch. It looks more like something you'd find on a piece of costume jewelry. Regardless, I'm happy with it.

    No fair, you guys can type faster than me :P

    Chris, that was my thought, but thwe rest of the group is pre-war. Enamel being what it is, though, it might be a replacement for a broken original or a deteriorated Turkish made one.

    That is without a doubt the BEST S&L I have ever seen. Yup, the unmistakable strawberry seeds pattern confirms it.

    I'm not sure of the vintage just from the pin-- they made a lot of replacement enamel-type Silesian Eagles in the 1930s with pin fastenings like that.
