Belonging to my friend's father, this VINTAGE "Gold Filled Blue Enamel College Of American Pathologists Tie Tack Lapel Pin" was received in 1967. Kept in a box full of my friend's father's jewelry and mementoes, it is in EXCELLENT Condition with NO marks, stains, missing enamel or other damage; it comes from a smoke-free, pet-free home. With a diameter of approximately 5/8ths of an inch, the squeeze back clip works smoothly and holds securely; it is NOT Marked. The Gold Center holds the "Beaker" logo of CAP and the words "College Of American Pathologists" is in raised Gold letters around the Blue Enamel rim. Masterfully handcrafted with EXQUISITE detailing, this piece of CAP history is sure to impress. A finely crafted Pin, it features an attractive design. The College of American Pathologists (CAP) is the leading organization of board-certified pathologists. For 70 years it has served patients, pathologists, and the public by fostering and advocating excellence in the practice of pathology and laboratory medicine worldwide. As medicine, technology and pathology have evolved since 1946, the CAP has led the way to meet new challenges that result in better patient outcomes.
