    Hello komokwa that was what I was thinking airline related but couldnt seem to find any items like it and I figured they would have miles on the pin if it was for miles all the 100,000 mile pins I seen says 100,000 miles on the pin but I don’t know. Anyways thanks again for the reply and happy 4th. Matt

    Southwest Airlines? It's made from a superimposed S and a W.

    Only thing is southwest was founded in 1967 and the pin has a date of 1952 on it so I can’t be southwest airlines.

    I don't know what the SW or WS stands for, but I see 100 Thousand Club.
    The pin is 14K, so the pearls are probably real. (Rub a tooth over one and if it feels gritty, the pearl is real.)

    The only reference I find is to a magazine being sited for a company that was recognized in the magazine. Cannot find when the magazine started or anything else about the magazine.
    The SW or WS may be for whatever company was recognized in 1952, if the magazine was around at that time.


    The 100 Thousand Club is an elite publication that features everything from the absolute best in sophisticated travel and real estate to the most tasteful and elegant products. What makes the publication so prestigious and noteworthy is that only 100,000 copies are printed each quarter and selectively distributed to the 100,000 wealthiest people in the United States.

    Hello clutter thank you for your response my research didn’t come up with a publication so that will give me another searching point to go off of so a searching I will go. I have a feeling this item is going to be one of those items that is going to go unidentified and will drive me crazy trying to figure out what it is .iam just one of those people who like knowing the history of all the things I have collected and drives me crazy when there is that one thing I just don’t know anyways thanks again clutter for you reply and info you had. Matt PS the little pearls are real.

    I think you're looking for a savings & loan

    The scrap value likely exceeds the collectible interest
