Bought this little pin off eBay. It looks as though it is made of two different pins stuck together. In fact I am quite sure I’ve found the gargoyle part, it is the one playing the guitar in the photos.
This is the mascot of a music festival named Monster Of Rock.
You will find many more pins combine the band logo with the little monster like MAIDEN, SABBATH,SAXON,LED ZEPPELIN,DIO etc who ever performed in the festival.
Ah okay! That’s interesting - it looks as though they just attached two pins together as there is a groove across the back of the Deep Purple pin where a safety pin should go. The Sabbath patch with the cross and this monster is the same. I guess they were just made on the cheap :)

I love when someone finds such things like this one.
