I worked in a Chevy store in the late 70's...we used to get lots of pins for different things...probably still have a few stashed away. Very different today [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

That's what they are. That one in the picture is a tie clasp. I have the full set of tie clasp and cuff links.

I said what the heck are you talking about and she reminded me of this and said she saw it at a flee market and bought it for me. $5.00 she is sending it to me this week.</span></span>
