"Vintage 1950s 1960s Lorioli Alfa Romeo Lapel Pin.
This is a vintage cloisonné lapel pin, manufactured by Lorioli of Milano, Italy, either in the 1950's or early 1960's for Alfa Romeo.
It is NOT a pin back lapel pin but one that is to be worn in the button hole of the lapel.
The logo measures some 13 millimeter in diameter."

Maybe it clips to a natty Italian driving cap ?? :)
LOL Mike! I haven't a clue.....
Lapel button for Alfa Romeo staff, as service pins?
kyra - you are a clever cookie!!! That is what it is, and I found one using that information. Mystery solved!

The next time you go out on the town, wear a purple, pin-striped suit with your new LAPEL PIN. Be sure to wear a matching fedora and two-tone brogans. And a long, thin cigarette holder, even if you don't smoke (just don't light it!). Finish off the ensemble with a long gold-tone fob chain and small, perfectly round sunglasses in thin, gold-tone wire frames, ala John Lennon. Oh, wait! And suspenders. Not a belt, but suspenders. Purple suspenders. You'll turn all the guys' heads and be the envy of every gal, I'm sure! [;>)
Or, wear a tight, camouflage tank-top and matching short-shorts and military boots. Top it off with you lapel pin attached to a khaki beret, and you'll turn my head until I'm so dizzy I can't see straight! [;>)))))
LMAOOOOOO @ NevadaBlades~!! I have the glasses.....
As an Alfisti I love this.
Also loving Blades fashion sense!
karen - we had carnival here in February....hahaha!
Well, there you go, Effy, wear just the glasses! But where would you put that lapel pin, then?!!? [;>))))))
NevadaBlades - the pin can hang from my bandana....hee hee....
I can picture that! [;>)))))))
