This vintage American Legion commemorative pin features a heavy, cast pewter charm in the shape of a World War I M1917 "Doughboy" helmet. The metal helmet is suspended by a blue fabric cord from a celluloid pinback button displaying the official American Legion emblem in red, white, and blue. This style of badge was typically issued to veterans attending national or state conventions during the 1920s and 1930s. The item is in original, unrestored condition with natural patina on the pewter and no significant fraying to the suspension cord.
