    Pink!? Yep.

    Pink Pink was a masculine color in many parts of the country, in the 19th century anyway. Seems the women's magazines made pink/girl-blue/boy uniform through the country circa WWI.

    cutting edge

    It could be a species of trench art: I've heard of GI's melting down airplane parts to cast projects in aluminum.

    The Oldest Living Magic Drinking Birds?

    Yup I haven't found your exact model in my catalog collection, but it does indeed look a lot like the ones manufactured in the late 1940s.

    Does anyone know something about this UNPA pin

    Aw, don't feel bad. It's like a Civil Defense pin, not anti-aircraft.

    Shirt Sleeve Garters

    The metal garters are period-authentic. I have catalogs from 100 years ago that show them.

    Does anyone know something about this UNPA pin

    UNPA was the WWII Italian National Association for Air-Raid Protection; the letters stand for l'Unione Nazionale per la Protezione Anti-Aeria. An Italian collector's page has a picture of your pin: http://collezionismovvf.interfree.it/Unpa.htm
