Named USNR Aviator Insignia Grouping to Paul Sampson with Leather A-2 Jacket Name Patches, Wings & Bullion Rank Insignia

An intriguing named U.S. Naval Reserve aviator grouping attributed to Paul Sampson, consisting of three brown leather flight jacket name patches marked “T. P. Sampson USNR,” a silver tone pilot wing belt buckle measuring approximately 3 x 1.375 inches, a pair of gold bar rank pins representing the Navy rank of Ensign, and several additional bullion rank and aviation insignia acquired with the set. The leather name patches measure approximately 3.5 to 4 inches wide and appear intended for wear on an A-2 style flight jacket or similar flying gear. While the history and service details of Paul Sampson remain unknown, the collection offers an excellent opportunity for further research and would make an attractive display for collectors of U.S. Naval aviation memorabilia.
