About this Item
1.25 inch brass axe pendant, the emblem of Carry nation's crusade to rid the country of the evils of liquor. Known as the "hatchetations" - members of Carry Nation would bust up saloons and crack open barrels to spill the brew. In the early 20th century, members could purchase these pendants to show their support for the cause. A New York Times report mentions the sale of these items in an article from August 19th, 1901. Four later dated postcards featuring Mrs. Carry A. Nation (aka Carry Amelia Moore) are included. Seller Inventory # 3729
