This is a 442 tie tack that was manufactured in 1965 for technicians/mechanics who worked on the 442. I wear this one occasionally but it is better suited on solid coloured, narrow ties like the ones worn in the sixties.  |

To answer your question, Stan, I bought this tie clip off ebay about 10 years ago. I had called the seller to learn that this 442 clip belonged to an Olds mechanic who worked on these particular cars. When the dad passed away the son put it up for sale.
I didn't realize that cuff links were also available. I apologize for my second rate photography when I see some of the other pics posted above. I obviously need to work on this skill!!!
