Chinese Mao Zedong Circular Lapel Pin

Silvery rim covered in tiny script, a jet cutting across the red center.

This Mao Zedong circular 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. Broad silvery rim carries fine inscribed characters all the way around. Inside, a profile with high collar sits in red beams of rays. A small aircraft shape slices across the lower part of the disc. It is 2.5 inches in diameter.

Lots of text, and every bit of it fits.
