I am posting this for a friend.  They recently purchased a box of
     objects at an antique auction and discovered two small service pins
     from the National Tea Company.  These appear to have never been taken
     out of their containers.  An inscription on the back of one of the
     containers reads "Pat Field 6/7/48".  If anyone works in a museum that
     this might be of interest to, the owner would like to donate the pins
     to them.  I can be contacted at [log in to unmask] if anyone
     is interested.
                Thank you,
