1935 Yugoslavian Women's Feminist Movement (Ženski-Feministički Pokret) lapel/stick pin.
Yugoslavia was a Balkan country that existed from 1918 to 1992, uniting South Slavic peoples under two main iterations: the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918–1941) and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1945–1992). Founded on the vision of unity after World War I, it was a diverse nation spanning Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia. This pin is from the 1930's, indicating it is from the Kingdom of Yugoslavia period. The pin says "Sjedinjenje" meaning "unification"/"union." Feminists during this period were focused on political rights/suffrage, economic equality, and legal status. The magazine "The Women's Movement" (Ženski pokret) published from 1920-38 served as a crucial archive for feminist thought.
The pin is in good, vintage condition. See photos for condition.
Pin is 4.5 cm long
