ARTIFACT: (Possibly) Early 20th century Kansas State Hospital Training School nurse graduation pin by Stephen Lane Folger Inc. in New York. The pin features a red enameled cross in the center of the gilt brass pin and surrounding the outer edge it reads: "K. S. H. T. S. 1914". The reverse shows a maker's mark that reads: "FOLGER 180 B'WAY N.Y." The date on the pin is likely the year the school was founded or established and not the year of graduation, though the pin may still be from this time period.

VINTAGE: Circa early 20th century

SIZE: Approximately 3/4" in diameter

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Gilt brass, enamel

ATTACHMENT: Vertical pin with drop in locking swivel catch

MARKINGS: "FOLGER 180 B'WAY N.Y.", "Y"

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The badge shows minor to moderate wear mostly to edges, much of the plated and enamel details remain intact.
