Peace on Earth

This round Pre-Unification Christmas 1996 pin features a dark blue outer circle with a red and gold sleigh with a gold Santa inside, and gold reindeer at the top of the pin. In front of the reindeer are three gold stars and one behind the sleigh. At the bottom of the outer circle are the words, ‘PEACE ON EARTH’ and ‘Canada ‘96’ below in gold letters. To each side of the words are gold stars – one on the left and two on the right. Inside the outer circle is a blue and green globe with thin gold outer circle. The pre-unification Hard Rock Café logo is written across the dark blue outer circle and blue and green globe in red letters and lines.
