| | | | The picture shows a view of this World War II Bundles For Britan Pin With Hanging Stripe. The pin appears to be made of brass and it has white and red enameled areas. The pin has a crown, an hour glass, and is marked as follows: BUNDLES BRITAN The pin measures 1-1/4'' wide and is in near mint condition. Below here is some background information that was found online about this organization that is still in operation today. ''The Sausalito Salvage Shop began in 1940 as "Bundles for Britan." Its origins were based on very early World War II war efforts. It gradually evolved to a place were individuals could donate their used wares, as we then sold them, and raised money for local charities. It is an all volunteer, all donations organization. The receipts are donated to a variety of charities and locations: The Hospice of Marin; Re-entry scholarships at College of Marin; Teaching scholarships at Dominican College; and generally recognized charities such as the Alzheimer Association, American Cancer Society and the American Lung Association.'' |
