Hey guys

I did alittle research and found that NYC citizens held an exhibit in 1914 to promote better sanitation. However, I havent found anything on the badge. Im assuming they were given out to promote the event.
Any info would be great.
Thanks
Keith

Somehow I'm sensing irony.
Can't wait to see photos.
