    Looking for any information on this (tribe?) from the 1940's. Small handmade beaded moccasins on a pin. My aunt corresponded with servicemen during WWII and a Native American sent this to her. She does not remember anything more about it.

      These little pins were made by various tribes and sold as souvenirs all across the states in the 1940s and 1950s. Narrowing this down to one particular tribe really isn't possible.

      Yes but the way she got it makes it very special!

      Yes, thank you. My mother wanted to find out if it was something that could be donated to a museum but she had no info except what is in the description.
