Chinese Mao Zedong Lapel Pin

Crimson bar with five characters packed edge to edge.

This Mao Zedong lapel pin is from China, and dates to the 20th century. It is metal. Cultural Revolution memorabilia, whether porcelain figures, buttons or posters, is described as reflecting pivotal moments in modern Chinese history and the lives swept up in that period, beyond the figure it portrays. Long narrow badge in dark crimson, with a thin gold border and a wire loop above the top edge. Five closely spaced gold characters in running script stretch almost to the ends. It is 0.25 inches wide and 1.75 high.

No margin, no worry, and no hesitation either.
