Stellar Pin!

Check this bad boy out!!! Found it about 5 inches deep at a local park. Might anyone know the era and value? Thanks.

Does it say boys and girls club ? I think it is 1930's - as to value, no idea . I'd like to see the back of it too !

Here's the backside of the pin:


The front says - "Boys and Girls Club"
The back reads - "Compliments of The Farming Business W.D. Boyce Co. Publisher Chicago, Illinois."

Thank you for any addition info.

Didn't this club pre-date the Boy Scouts of America? I'm thinking its over 100 years old. Should be able to find info on the web.

That's really interesting, it has the look of a watch fob, but with the obvious pin back.
My two cents worth, I'd say TOC.
Farming Business sounds like a newspaper or magazine publisher, I'd go that route doing research.
