WW1 Canadian CEF 91st Battalion Sweetheart Lapel Pin

The WW1 Canadian CEF 91st Battalion Sweetheart Lapel Pin is a commemorative item associated with the 91st Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force, which served during the First World War. Sweetheart pins were commonly given by servicemen to their loved ones as personal mementos during periods of military service. This pin typically features the battalion number “91” and may include national symbols such as a maple leaf, reflecting its Canadian origin. Constructed in metal with enamel details, the pin is small and suitable for wear on civilian clothing. Items of this kind provided a tangible connection between soldiers and their families at home, serving both sentimental and patriotic functions. The 91st Battalion was raised in Ontario and contributed to the broader Canadian war effort overseas. This pin represents both personal and historical aspects of Canada’s participation in the First World War and the tradition of military sweetheart jewelry during that era.
