Richmond Howitzers

[Jonl51]

Greetings!
I'm seeking any information on these two pins and badge for the Richmond Howitzers. I believe the badge is older than the pins, but that's just a guess. Pins were made by A.H. Dondero Inc., and are 20th century I think. The badge is not marked, seems older. Thank you!

I'm currently away and can't check my library.

With that said, t haven't had time to check out the larger pin. May date from the 1920's/1930's.

Small pins probably dates 1930's to 1940's.

Thank you! There is a badge similar to my large one on display at The Museum of the Confederacy. It was owned by Jefferson Davis 's daughter.
