1917-24 Type 2-B Girl Scout MEMBERSHIP PIN, RARE EUC Collectors Historians

Description

TYPE 2B 1917 - 1924,
GIRL SCOUT MEMBERSHIP PIN
In 1917, the “Type 2” design was offered.  The most important change was the addition of the G.S. at the top of the trefoil which remains there even today.  Here are the similarities in the FOUR Type 2 varieties:  3 Stars, 4 Bars on the shield, NO cord from the tail to the arrows, Background is hammered looking, (although in different degrees,) and there is still NO ribbon in the eagle’s mouth. (This definition does not include the Type 2 pins with a Gold Content.)
Here is what makes 2B different from the other three varieties:
·
The bottom quadrant is elongated making it obviously larger than the other three.
·
It is the only variety with a “J-Hook” clasp.
·
Legs and claws are not clear.
All the Type 2 pins are rare if only because they are over 120 years old. This one looks great from the front, but shows age on the back including rust on the J-Hook catch.  (Enlarge the photo to see it more clearly.)  Catch works fine now, but I think it might be delicate due to the rust starting.  I have not cleaned this.
Fabulous GIFT for the Collector or Historian.
