Piece of Donegal Witness Tree.(Cross-sectional slice of branch with bark on one portion.)
Note: This is apparently different than a "section of wood from the Witness Tree at Donegal church. Donated by Mrs. M.N. Robinson. Noted in minutes in Journal of 1 June 1906.
Metal plaque, top 2/3 is an engraved image of farmland at the bottom, then technology and industry, including representations of trains, ships, tanks, factories, and airplanes in levels above the land. Superimposed in the center is the Army/Navy "E" flag. At the bottom: "Home Front Production, The Slaymaker Lock Company, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, This award is a tribute to the members of our organization who have made possible the winning of this honor." Made by Chambellan.
Good condition. Has flecks of white on the top half, and the metal color has been scraped in a few small spots (wheel near the center, the T and N in "Production").
