A group of chrome plated and vitreous enamel pins depicting early American "Midget" racing cars. The likes of which were customised by independent enthusiasts and often raced illegally on the streets of America. It was the very early stages of motor racing in America, and making their pioneering, daredevil drivers heroes at the time.
They are very rare today due to the fact that they are vitreous enamel, quite fragile, and were worn on racing suits. The condition for each is perfect, and would look great on a leather, denim or waxed jacket today. In their own right, they represent a great window into American motor racing history. They are all made by 'Hookfast' in Providence R.I, U.S.A. circa 1930's. Please note, the price is for each pin (select the colour required)
