Description

Leather headband, used for Black Arrow costumes. The headband is a light brown leather strap with five sets of double holes punched through on either end. A beaded piece is sewn onto the strap in the center. It consists of white beads for the background and a single row of dark blue beads around the edges for a frame. A triangle on the left and another on the right are created using dark blue, yellow, and red beads. In between the triangles is the name Zonta, done in black beads with a black arrow underneath. The year numbers 54 are beaded in dark red across the shaft. Zonta was the Black Arrow name given to the donor's wife, Alma (Berreth) Spencer.
