Ford Motor logo tie pin given to employees 1930

By mmetzgar1305, 28 April, 2014
Description

The Jeweler's box is with the tie pin.  I called the Jewelery Company and they said the tie pin was probably one given to employees for working at Ford or for some honor.  The tie pin does not have the Jeweler's name engraved on it or a indication of gold content.  The pin is in perfect condition and has the original box.

All wagons received flat-folding middle seats at mid-year, an innovation that would reappear in the minivans of the 1990s. The 1949 and 1950 styling was similar, with a single central "bullet" in the frowning chrome grille.[5] In the center there was a red space that had either a 6 or 8 depending if the car had the six-cylinder engine or the V8.[2] The trim lines were renamed as well, with "Standard" becoming "Deluxe" and "Custom" renamed "Custom Deluxe". The new Fords got the now-famous "Ford Crest" which appeared on the division's vehicles for many decades in one form or another. In 1950, Ford also manufactured a lesser known
