Couple of misc finds I got on Monday

I don't get out too much like I should, but when I do it is only close by as I have a hour or 2 at the most this past summer it seems. I went to a local farm yard I thought may be very good, but surprisingly it was very clean and was told it could be filled too as I got some shotgun shells at 10-12 inches deep plus got fooled with some deep cans too, but did find these 2 items that is interesting plus 1 Wheaties which was a 1944 that is in perfect shape and no wear.
First item is my second one for the year of the same thing and the only difference is the back on this one says donated by Selz while the other one just says Selz on the back side.

Has anyone found one of these pins before and can tell me about it. I thought it was a shoe company, but looked on E Bay and seen a pin like this one that says it is a award from late 1800 or early 1900 that was given out. Both I got this year were from older farm yard. and this one was a good 12 inches deep, but gave a decent signal on my GT.
The next item I like and never seen one like it before and I hope you can read the writing on it as it is Trail Blazers Graf Zeppelin in 1929 did something in 21 days and Magellan around the world 1519-1522 Time aprox 3 years. I pretty sure it is a pocket watch cover and more than likely the back cover. Never seen one like it before, so this will go in my display of misc items.
