Chevrolet Charm Bracelet

You are buying one vintage Chevrolet Charm Bracelet

Description & Condition

This sale is for a vintage Chevrolet charm bracelet from the 1960's
Included in this sale are the following items:
Bracelet
One charm which is the GM building in Detroit with a Chevy logo on the bottom
on the back of the charm are the words 'Claims Adjuster 2-1-69'
The original box for the bracelet - blue felt inside and out
except the inside of the lid with the Balfour logo and 'Jewelry's Finest Craftsmen' is printed blue letters on a white background
The original white paperboard box for the blue felt box
A notecard with 'Career In Medals' on the front
A message from LNMays on the inside
According to an article in the New York Times, LN Mays was Lewell N Mays
Mr. Mays retired in December 1972 from GM as Vice President and General Manager of Buick
I will go out on a limb and guess in 1969, the date of the bracelet, that Mr. Mays was Vice President and General Manager of Chevrolet
The bracelet was intended for the wives of 'Chevrolet Men' per the card
I am calling the bracelet used but it appears to be in like-new (slightly tarnished) condition
The measurements are approximately:

Eight (8) inches long from end to end, would fit a slightly smaller wrist
The bracelet and charm weigh approximately 1.4 ounces

The bracelet is as pictured -- see the pictures for more details -- use the zoom feature for closer inspection
The bracelet, felt box and LNMays card have no damage that I could find -- no chips, scratches, nicks or other damage
There may be some fading or other age related changes but overall this looks fantastic for it's age
The damage on the top of the white Balfour box is peeled away shiny paper on the top of the box
Kinda like if you put tape on a box that has a shiny finish, pulled the tape off and a bit of the shiny paper came off
The price I am asking reflects the fact that I have the original boxes and card from LN Mays
Those items are the as-received items that the employee and spouse would have received when the bracelet was presented to the employee
The squares in grid in some photos are 1inch x 1inch
This is not a stock photo, the item pictured is what you will receive
