I Like Pat Nixon and Emily Cabot Lodge Rare 1960 Pin

This is the only “Pat and Emily” pin we know of in this design. It’s a 1 3/4 inch celluloid from 1960 featuring Pat Nixon and Emily Sears Lodge. The Nixons met when they were part of a local theater group doing the play “The Dark Tower.” The Lodges met at a debutante party in 1926. Pat and Emily both were devoted wives and important contributors to their husbands’ careers. Excellent.
