Hi Fellas (and the few gals that post on here),

I don't post too much, but browse the board every now and again. I also like to post when I come across something cool!
I picked up this Allen, Texas Highschool Football charm. I thought it was kind of nifty, and might have some decent collector value, too. 8)

It's a neat little charm which celebrates Highschool "S" as "bi-district champions" of 1939.

It says 10kt gf (filled, I know :() And may have the maker written under that, but I can't read it.

Anywho, I thought it was a good yardsale find at 25 cents, and thought some of ya'll might appreciate it! :P

Do you think that Allen would have worn that one on his wrist charm bracelet, or his ankle charm bracelet?

It's quite plausible. The yard sale was about 45 minutes from Allen, TX, which is a decent sized city in the norther DFdub! :)

Cool, my aunt and uncle live in Allen
 
My Mama said that the football players used to give those types
of chams to their girls. Nobody wanted to give up their rings
back then.
Cool find.
