For awhile I have been trying to build a collection of Vintage Attendant hat badges and product pins. I started with Socony Vacuum/Mobil but have branched out to other companies. There is something alluring to me about these particular "smalls" Think of all the the station hats and uniforms they have adorned in the past. I am particularly fond of the fact they are easier to move around than gas pumps...LOL. Here are some of my collection. I think Jim posted a pic of these ones before..but this is what started me geeking out on badges. They look cool <IMO> displayed on the vintage flag.
