<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 422669, member: 54"]Looking at tiny clues for what it may have been attached to-the back has shadows/impressions of a drilled or punched hole. A wooden backing would not leave those marks. I think it was more likely attached to something made of steel or iron. I doubt it was on furniture, since it carries a political message, and I haven’t seen political furniture. I’m guessing it was attached to something that was made to use for a relatively short time. Maybe a frame for a name tag at a convention.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
