US WW2 CPT Wing 'Dancraft'

In a very good condition a US WW2 Civilian Pilot Training Program Wing.
The CPTP was started in 1939 as a New Deal program to stimulate the growth of general aviation and was origninally not associated with the military. The US government paid for ground school and 35 to 50 hours of flight instruction at civilian flight schools near thirteen colleges and universities. The idea was to generate interest in aviation and give an economic boost to the light plane industry. After Pearl Harbor, the CPTP became the War Training Service and provided elementary flight training for aviation cadets prior to Primary Training.
These wings are generally thought to be flight instructor wings, but they are actually wings given to students after solo.
The wing is maker marked by Danraft (The only maker) and comes with a functional needle and catch.
A very good example!
