Item Description
3.5x5-13/16” light blue card plus silvered brass bracelet 5.75” long. Bracelet’s oval center reads “Jimmie Allen/Richfield Hi-Octane/Pilot.” Card bears club headquarters address in Los Angeles for this 1935 gasoline-sponsored radio show. Text on the card, in addition to the title, reads “Dear Flying Cadet: You Don’t Know How Happy I Am To Send You This Wristlet. It’s Yours To Keep As A Symbol Of Permanent Membership In Our Club And As A Reward For The Successful Completion Of Your Flying Course. Keep Your Wings Too, Our Club Is Planning ‘Big Doings’ In 1935.” While we’ve seen the bracelet several times before, this is the first example of the card. Both card and bracelet are N. Mint.
