    Picked this one up today. It measures about 1 1/2" long.

    The pin back and sterling mark looks to be from the 1930s- 40s time period.

    The quality is much higher than the modern ones that I have seen.

    The front fin actually extends substantially out from the body.

    The "Chinook" marking looks like a later addition.

    Any thoughts on the maker or on the age are appreciated!
