Beautiful SS Edmund Fitzgerald / Fitz Great Laker Boat Pin. The Edmund Fitzgerald was a gigantic ore carrier, at one time the largest ship on the Great Lakes and holder of numerous tonnage records. It was caught up in a vicious November storm on Lake Superior and, after hours of battling high winds and 30-foot waves, suddenly disappeared from radar without so much as a single warning or SOS from its captain or crew. It sailed from 1958 until that fateful day in November 1975. The Legend is carried on by the Gordon Lightfoot song The Fitz.

Pin is approximately 2 inches long as you can see in the photo. Great tie tack or addition to any Jacket. Rare item, they make great gifts for your favorite Great Lakes Ship fan.
Pins are stamped from metal, Then painted and some have epoxy coating for durability. 
I hope you will treasure these memories as jewelry to be worn, and not merely as trinkets to be discarded and forgotten.
