Can someone help identify this Emmons brooch - pin and the year it was made? It is quite unusual and should be easily found in reference books, which I don't own. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Helps to have a pic of the back of anything posted. We LOVE pictures here, so you can post up to 4 in each post here. The More the merry we are ....LOL
Yes that is what I thought too. Maybe inspired by Star Trek...LOL

I own the pin but the photos are not mine. Here though is the back photo from one online (added above). This person listed theirs as a "comet shape".
Possibly a chevron shape?
I see many listed as a boomerang shape.
Great brooch! I agree that it's a 50s boomerang motif; very popular and cool style.
This was identified through Emmons books... unimaginatively called "Twin Pins", it came as a set of two and is from 1965.
