PLEDGE pin!!! PLEDGE PIN!!!

No, no, no John, we are associates.

JonoBN41 03-20-2007 05:57 PM

Not until 1972 - and this one was DEFINITELY before 1972.

Pledge Pin
 
This was a pre-merger, pre-1939 LXA pledge pin


Did Bidder #6 win?

Tom Earp 03-20-2007 06:24 PM

Yes He Did!:D

JonoBN41 03-20-2007 06:27 PM

Can't you see it, John? The winning bidder's ebay ID name shows up when I go back and look at it. What I'd like to know is who the 2nd highest bidder was! That's who actually determined the final price.

John, Jono, I am aware of that. I was JOKING with you guys. Jeeeez.

Well since I've been away from my computer all day......I will finally claim 'Bidder 6'. It was I who actually won the pre-merger pledge pin, I have been looking for it for about 8-10 months now and I finally found one :) .......I too would like to know who the 2nd to last Bidder was, I think I have a clue as to who bid $250, but not sure about the other one who bid what looked like $300. Guess the world may never know :( Anyway I guess I can pretty much hang my hat up on the ebay thing for a while......I need to save my money for a bit.

If I can remember how to list pictures I will put some up!

For some reason that reminds me of an original Star Trek communicator that they wore on their shirts.

Trey_P-I_47 03-21-2007 12:20 PM

Well I honestly don't know what a Star Trek Communicator would look like......I have only ever seen Star Trek in passing whatever channel it may have happened to be on.......guess it was either before my time....or of not much interest to me.......oh well.

There ya go!

Congratulations Bidder # 6!:D

Great thing to place in your collection!:)

JonoBN41 03-21-2007 06:30 PM

Here's a question. What architectural feature were both the old pledge pin and fraternity seal purportedly designed to represent?

(hint: Bill Gates might know)

GammaZeta 03-21-2007 06:36 PM

A monopolistic multi-national corporation?

or a window?

JonoBN41 03-21-2007 06:53 PM

yeah whatever

Trey_P-I_47 03-21-2007 08:59 PM

Yeah im not really seeing the 'window' on the Official Seal.....maybe you can post a picture Jono and point it out to me......BTW it took me forever to find the LXA monogram on the AM/Original Pledge Pin.....so I usually need help in the visualization areas. :D

Tom Earp 03-22-2007 02:22 PM

So Jono, what is the answer to your question?

I know you will have an interesting answer.:)

JoinerLxa 03-26-2007 10:30 AM

Gothic Arch.

There are 8 on the seal.
