School Bus Driver Service Pins Fulton County, GA & Misc Mixed 11 qty

These service pins were earned by a family member who lived in northern Fulton County, GA. The bus route driven was in the far north area of Fulton County, north and northwest of Roswell, Georgia. There are 8 qty pinbacks imprinted Fulton County with an engraved years of service. These Fulton County pinbacks have no wording on the back.

There is 1 qty 2 year bus service pin without any location designated. This pinback has wording on the back, “The Hartford Insurance Group”. It would be safe to assume Hartford Insurance supplied service pins to the school district sometimes. The family member never drove for any other school district.
I do not know why there are duplicate Fulton County service pins for 3 and 4 years of service, as well as the Hartford Insurance 2 year pin. Probably just extra pass out of the pins at recognition ceremonies for the bus drivers.

There is one Fulton County Schools pinback, a large size (1 inch x 9/16 inch), that says, “Fulton County Schools, Where Students Come First”. It has a little decorative glass stone, light purple color, embedded in the front at the upper right front. I assume it is colored glass.

There is one non-Fulton County pin mounted on a white retail card. Wording on the white retail card says, “School Pins, by: Pin-Centives”. The pinback wording says, “School Bus, Special Deliveries”.
I assume this pin may have been given by another bus driver or a parent on the bus route. The family member drove Fulton County School bus routes for at least 15 years. There are no service pins after 6 years.

All the pinbacks are in good condition. Only the 6 year service pin shows signs of wear around the edges. It has some tarnish or discoloration at the bottom of the engraved years of service area.

All pins have the round style pin stud grip hasp installed and working.
