Description

Now this is a rather interesting collection of vintage Australian charity / appeal (mostly) pins, and it seems to cover a fairly wide range of ages, looking like some dating from around (or before?) WW2, others a bit more recent given the use of decimal currency amounts on a couple of them. Most are imperial amounts.

Quite fascinating - I originally thought the "Fuzzy Wuzzy Day" pin was something horrifically culturally insensitive (and the naming isn't exactly ideal), but I found it quite educational doing a bit of a quick search about it online. I won't spoil it but you could learn a lot of history by looking into some of these appeals, and the reasons for them.

An amazing little collection for someone - perhaps a project for some young folks to learn some history? :-) Condition per photos, most of the pins are complete, a couple are missing the actual pin on the back. Some age appropriate wear.

As always I'm happy to answer any questions I can about the items I list :-) Please click or tap on the photos to enlarge for detail and to judge the condition for yourself.

I don't use the Buy Now options in my auctions.

Please examine the photos accompanying the auction carefully as they form part of the item's description. Most of the items I sell are antique, vintage or second hand, and as such aren't in perfect condition. They often have minor wear and tear as you would expect from items with some age to them.
