Carry A. Nation

At the turn of the century, Carry Nation was “America’s foremost
lady hellraiser” and "the apostle of reform violence.” A radical
member of the temperance movement, Carrie Nation was known for
attacking saloons, bars, and pubs with a hatchet engraved with
name. In her own words, she was "a bulldog running along at the
feet of Jesus, barking at what He doesn't like."  We liked her
hatchet pins so much, we thought we’d try to make some of our own.
