difficult to date, but it's a $500+ pin and exceedingly rare. Nice pickup.

Very nice pickup. That pin is a bit harder to find and in the condition yours looks to be in ,thats a nice pickup for 75. It usually has alot of foxing on the front. Late 40s early 50s. 350-500 would be about right.

Nice. Why can't I find stuff like this? I spent $75 at the bar last night and woke up with an empty wallet and a headache. And no, I will not be posting photos.

Our World Magazine
 
The image on the pin is the same image used on the cover of a 1947 issue of Our World Magazine- a black monthly that was published in the 40's and 50's - I think that theres a copy for sale on ebay so you may be able to search for the image. Possible the magzaine put it out.
