Silver Slipper Society???

Jadish · Mar 4, 2018

Hi everyone. Can anyone ID this badge? Its pretty solid and heavy, and has "Silver Slipper" and then "Society" on it (the word "Slipper" could be "Supper" but I doubt it). Any ideas?

A real head scratcher. With the club and the spade represented on the piece, one would think it's related to the old Silver Slipper casino in Vegas, but I can find no relation to it myself. It looks as if there may have been a word above the "society" but the enamel is missing. I think I see what may be the bottom of an E or similar letter on the right above the T and the Y in society, or I may just be seeing things. Did you find this piece in Japan? No markings on the back I presume? What is the actual size of it anyway?

Its about 3cm X 3cm. No markings on the back, nor any obvious shanks or attachment marks on the back that would indicate it was a badge or pin at one time. I also re-examined the word "Society" but could not find any letters above it. Strange eh?
