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.
