Vintage Japanese Prize Toy Olympic Badge-Track and Field-Green

These vintage (possibly before WW2) badges were prize toys. Each badge was attached to a lightweight cardboard sheet in a numbered space. There were tickets at the bottom that the buyer would select to see what number prize they got. 

The badge fastens like a tie tack with a post and knurled knob that screws into place. The badge is made of a soft metal, possibly pewter with a wash of lacquer color. 

This badge shows either a high jumper or hurdler and has the Olympic rings in the upper right corner. If it was produced before the war then it might be unsold old stock that was used on a 1950's prize sheet.

Condition is unused, just as it came from the prize toy sheet.

1.5 inches (3.8 cm) wide
