British War Relief Society (BWRS) Screw-back Pin

This pin is associated with the British War Relief Society (BWRS), a U.S.-based charitable organization active during World War II that raised funds to provide aid to Britain. The design incorporates the British royal motto “Dieu et mon droit” (“God and my right”), along with heraldic elements including a lion, crown, and shield, all symbols commonly associated with the British Crown.

Pins of this type were sold in the United States to support British war relief efforts and are often linked to the “Bundles for Britain” campaign, a civilian aid program launched in 1940 to provide clothing, medical supplies, and other necessities to British civilians and servicemen affected by the war.

Some examples are documented as being produced by Accessocraft, and may be marked “Official BWRS” or “BWRS & BB” (British War Relief Society & Bundles for Britain).
This pin is not marked, so attribution is based on design, construction, and known period examples rather than a manufacturer stamp.

Pin is approximately 0.625” wide.
