The latest addition to the collection is a badge from the 300th anniversary celebration for the City of Salem, Massachusetts. One was given to each the 25 members of the Sunday Observance Committee. The Sunday Observance ceremonies were held in the Salem Common on Sunday, July 4, 1926.
The event consisted of ringing of the various churches bells, dedication of the Bandstand which is still in the Salem Common, a speech by the mayor and concert by the Salem Cadet Band.
