Hey Neighbor, Coooool button. The Browning King Company made buttons from 1860-1934. I'm assuming the letters are TWA, which may stand for Trans World Airlines. Breezie

Whoa there Whatsit Wizards!

That is NOT a T. It is a Gothic L.

League of American Wheelmen - a bicycling organization. Later became the League of American Bicyclists.

Bingo!
Thanks Matt!

The League began as the League of American Wheelmen (LAW) in 1880, and was responsible for defending the rights of cyclists from its start. The League of American Wheelmen is credited with getting paved roads in this country before the reign of the automobile.

By 1898, the League of American Wheelmen had more than 102,000 members including the Wright Brothers, Diamond Jim Brady, and John D Rockefeller!
