PLEASE NOTE: We are BOTH IN THE OFFICE as of MONDAY 06/09,
BUT this is somewhat Temporary,
So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!
Update 06/09/25: WE ARE still EXPERIENCING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH non-PayPal CREDIT CARD PURCHASES!!
We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!
We are HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ORDERS during this time, and we will promptly SHIP MOST orders within ONE Business Day of Receipt of Payment!
And, as always, if you would like to fund your $100.00+ order through a Bank that offers ZELLE, ASK ABOUT our ZELLE DISCOUNT!!
That DISCOUNT also applies to PayPal GIFT (Fee-Free), Check, and Money Order payments!!
Thank you for visiting. We hope you will find some vintage artifacts here on our site to add to your collection.
We look forward to serving your collecting needs, Ron & Kanae

Beautiful 1948 Allentown Hospital School of Nursing Graduation Pin in gold filled, enameled brass by Braxmar. The center features an enameled red cross with a brass embellishment that reads: "1948". The words around the center read: "SCHOOL OF NURSING ALLENTOWN HOSPITAL". The nursing school was operated by the hospital and trained over 3,500 nurses between 1899 and 1988.
