Sadly, I don't think his Dad was even born in '65.
Jeez, how old are we anyway!

In '64 actually. But that's not where they came from.

<< is a 61 er??

gee i want one of those

Repro's would be a nice item to complement the 'new' TD.

Come to think of it, where are the Cox International hats, T-shirts, etc.??

Hmm. How would one go about making a mold?

They are solid brass.

What does the back look like? I assume they are stamped brass wings with a straight pin back, like the old kiddie wings. I've got a collection of those too

The pins fantasic, surely people would still buy one. Come Cox International how about a limited run?

any updates on making reproductions td pins ? matt, bernie, reggie? plastic would be fine
to give kids after flying

Just to remind everyone I'm holding 100
Beer tokens for anyone that comes across
An 010 tie clip.

I have seen one only once on eBay, went for $40. Still kicking myself for not bidding higher.

I've got one

The actual engine?

here's a pic of one...

Don't drive around with that on your tie. An airbag might permanently implant it in your chest.

Prosthetic heart jokes may follow...

Get a MicroMark catalog or go to the web site:
http://www.micromark.com/casting-and-molding-supplies.html

Hobby Lobby the craft store not the aircraft people, sell a bunch of molding supplies

Sewing / jewelry sources for the back side pin or two tie tack pins like military insignia

Reproducing these in plastic/resin should not be expensive or hard to do...just tedious and not liable to make any money

Copy right or licensing considerations? Don't know about Cox but if it was Harley Davidson I know their lawyers would be all over whoever tried to re-manufacture trinkets like this. Wife does embroidery and we got letter from HD telling her to stop using HOG logo for motorcycle club patches she was making without license and royalty contract with HD

Just to be clear the 100 offer would be for the clip, if it had an unused 010 with it then obviously we'd be talking more.

$100 for the clip! I need to dig around in my sock drawer tonight.
