From a collector’s estate to you. Up for bids a rare item, an enamel on goldtone metal clip featuring the Paddleship Washington Irving. The ship was the flagship of the fleet held by the Hudson River Day Lines. It met its end in 1926 due to a crash with an oil barge.

This clip is believed to be part of the official uniform of those employed on the ship, though I can’t seem to find much info. Condition is fantastic, no real flaws as far as I can tell. The spring is very tight and I tried not to stress the metal too much, but the clip does open and spring closed. Measures 3/4 inches wide.
