The WW2 Canadian Artillery RCA Sweetheart Lapel Pin is a period artifact associated with the Royal Canadian Artillery during the Second World War. Manufactured by Scully of Montreal, a noted Canadian insignia maker, this lapel pin was typically given or worn as a token of support or affection, often by the family or loved ones of RCA servicemen. The piece features the insignia of the Royal Canadian Artillery, commonly including the stylized artillery gun and regimental motto. Constructed from brass or similar period-appropriate materials, and fitted with a lapel attachment, the pin measures approximately 1 inch in diameter. “Scully Montreal” is marked on the reverse, indicating its authenticity and manufacturer. Such sweetheart pins were widely produced in Canada during WWII to foster morale and demonstrate connection to serving members. This object reflects both military heritage and the role of homefront support in wartime Canada.
