New Run of Unified Heart Pins?

Hi everyone. First I'd like to say I'm very grateful to be a part of this community, thanks so much!

I wanted to make a post about the unfortunate lack of availability of unified heart pins. I am a younger Cohen fan and sadly I was never able to procure one. I feel as though there are many fans and members of the order of the unified heart that are looking for these pins as well.

We can wait for one to pop up second hand, but I can't help but feel that waiting desperately for a rare pin is not in the spirit of the Order. Especially when reading what Leonard said about nature of the Order:

"There are no meetings, no by-laws, and no dues, and if you lose the pin, you get another."
"There is no organization. There's no hierarchy. There's just a pin for people of a very broadly designated similar intent."

The Order is a gift to all of us, and I think it's a shame to see these pins fall out of circulation now that Leonard is gone. I want to find a way to revive their production.

Does anyone else feel the same way?
What about anyone on the inside who may know how to get another run of pins made?

I've included images of some pins that have been produced, leaving out the ones that have tour date script around the circumference. The last two bearing the more recent "Blessing to End Disunity" symbol.
Is this symbol an updated version of the one to be worn by members of the Order, or something separate?

I hope we can make this happen, and help keep the flame alive.

Hello!

I am new to this forum, and I am really glad to be here!

I was thinking about this as well, I would love to own a pin. Unfortunately, I cannot answer to your first question, but I am looking forward to any updates about this.

My recent idea was to get a tattoo of the hearts, but I don't want to be disrespectful in any way. Would it be an okay thing to do?

Kind regards :-)

Hilda

Hi Hilda, I’ve talked to a few people to see if we can get a small run made. I’ll let you know if that becomes reality. I think getting a unified heart tattoo is a great idea!

Of course it would be okay! You wouldn't be the first to get a unified hearts tattoo! ;-)
