Can I ask where you got the guard for the second badge? Am I correct in thinking there's an owl on there?

Paging thetygerlily and all BT afficionados!
Is this a thread that would be suitable for the History forum?

I think you could make a case for either side. If people understood that Vintage pins belong in the History Forum, and new ones here, it would help a LOT!

The chapter got guards for all of us at one point. It's an alpha (since we were a local, we were by definition the Alpha chapter) superimposed on a torch.

Each pin has it's own chain. I organized the dangles based on the guard - I held the offices in college, was a charter member as an alumna, and the sword is an award so it gets no dangles. I have a bubble guard on the stem to keep the chains in place.

I remember when I was working in Arizona (and visiting with the AZ Badge Contongent *waves*) my mom asked me which time zone I was in so she knew when to call me - I responded, "I have no effing clue!"

Yowza! That is a beauty - I did not realize Pi Beta Phi had silver (white gold) badges - where on earth did you see this?

Might be Theta Upsilon that merged with Delta Zeta in 1962.

That was my first thought, but doesn't look like their badge, unless it was some kind of special recognition pin. Note the "A" -- for Advisor, maybe?
