Gene Verrecchio for Coro Unsigned Mr. Bird Pin Figural Vintage Costume Jewelry

Very collectible Mr. bird pin Circa 1941. Lovely vintage anthropomorphic unsigned Coro bird pin designed by Gene Verrecchio for Coro. Measures 2" long.

He does have some paint wear and I believe his cane used to be black. SOLD AS FOUND.

There were color and paint variations for these pins and it came with a "Mrs." bird pin. This is only a "Mr." pin half. Maybe you can find the Mrs.!

I have other full pair sets in a separate listing that differs in color, belly stones and has rhinestones on the wings and eyes. So you may want to check out that listing as well.

There is a patent drawing for this pair, #125976, issued March 18, 1941. The last photo shows a copy of the original Gene Verrecchio bluebird design, only it is a chatelain chain set. Last photo is just for reference.
