Selling off a collection of mourning items, so please check my other listings ~ all pins work/latch unless otherwise noted. I will combine shipping. This is one of several photo mourning pins, as shown in last picture. Each is being sold in separate listings; they are not being sold as a lot. Nice teenage boy - possibly ill. Often when death was imminent and a photographer was at hand, family would have a pre-mortem photo taken of their loved one. If there was some disfigurement to the face, the photo was sometimes taken from the side. This could very well be such a photo. Either way, it is striking and unique. Measures approximately 1 5/8"T x 1"W. Red box not included.
