Item Description
These are the earliest two badges we know of to carry the slogan "Remember Pearl Harbor." They
were produced just 27 days after Pearl Harbor was attacked for a "Massachusetts Federation Of Labor/Emergency War Convention/Jan 3-4 1942". Both have a Bastian back paper and both have silver luster bar pin with one hanger designated "Delegate" and the other "Guest." The "Guest" badge reverse has left edge thin and barely seen pair of archival tape repairs to four short .25" stress splits along edge. These are barely seen from the front which is clean and glossy. The "Delegate" badge is NM. Both are first we've seen and most historic given their issue date. Rare.
