Description

Small escutcheon of St. John Baptist College, red center color field with an amulet in center surrounded by a black border color field and seven mullets on its surface; the upper left corner has ermine symbol surrounding a "rampant" lion. A barely visible stamp in red ink on back. This one is unlike MP.94.152 and .153 because it lacks the folded tin "ribbon" that affixes to the body. The shape is the same convex shape.
