Bohmen und Mahren Pin

I am hoping Mr. Pinkus is around tonight since I believe he is the resident sympathizer badge guru. I am not able to post a photo of this pin at this time. It is flat, unlike the party pins and it has no circle where the pin device is attached in the back like the party pins. Maybe a photo from someone who owns this pin could help me. I hope I didn't throw $35 out the window. I got the standard "I got this from an old Czech woman. Could be true since this was in Bethlehem, Pa. close to Moravian College. Any help would be very relieving at this point.

Thanks Mike,
You have made my week-end! Mine is exactly the same as yours. This is great. I guess she was telling me the truth in Bethlehem. Time to stop accumulating {sp.} for awhile and break down and get a camera. I will take a shot of mine and we can share the joy of ownership.
Thanks again
