Additional Description

General

These two pins were found connected together and are of similar design, so it is assumed that they share an original intent. Both are metal "button" pins, but square in shape. One is red and has the words "Rice Wise" in white. The other is blue and has a white owl (not a Rice logo design) with a small rectangular red field and the word "Player" in white. There is no information about the original date, purpose, owner, or donor of these items. Items are located in an envelope identified with 2 square "button" pins, 1 "Rice Wise" and 1 "Player."
