"Some people believe this is WWII Meriam Haskell unsigned. The back and the findings are consistent with the Haskell in Cathy Gordon's book on Haskell." --Cynthia, 12/23/08
"I'm sure that someone has mentioned the similarity in construction to Haskell. Not that I know much about Haskell and have no idea whether this is one of her's or a look-alike. Cathy's pages might be helpful." --Mary in England, 12/24/08
"Yes, Susan Corwin pointed out that the sewed back brooch is most probably early unsigned Haskell. I was thrilled. I looked at the pages and it is indeed the construction of those WWII brooches made by Haskell. So, with
