The person selling it says all the items on their ebay site were found at garage sales?? (Who would sell a quill at a garage sale?!)
Sometimes it gets out of the hands of the owner for whatever reason, and the person who winds up with it has no idea what it is, its value, its meaning, etc.

ETA: The two Quills on ebay right now (posted by AZ Alpha Xi and SexiFuzzy) are from the same chapter and are only two years apart! I'm sure the original owners new each other. What I'm curious about is that the one from 1947 is the "vintage" 20 pearl (well, 19 pearl 1 diamond) and the older one is actually the current 15 pearl style. Interesting!
