I came up with this Lady's belt buckle with mother of pearl and an "A" monogram. rear of buckle is marked "improved Grip Tite". I estimate this buckle to be late 1920's 0r early 1930's. Admin. edit - please see posting requirements size is roughly 1.5" long X slightly less than 1.18" wide. the actual buckle mechanism appears nickel, but the "frame" overlay appears to be sterling (as well as the monogram).
any help greatly appreciated.
