- History Of Use
- Although this small artifact looks like a pin, it does not have an actual pin component with which to affix it to clothing, etc. In addition, no other pins from the Bulkley Valley Fair have ever been discovered. Thus, this item was likely originally part of a prize ribbon; small buttons were sometimes affixed to the center of ribbons (see 2019.10.2 and 2019.10.3 for examples).
