Description

This vintage lapel pin from the now defunct Arthur Andersen & Co. features their famous wooden door logo. It was inspired by a set of wooden double doors from outside of the company's original Chicago office. They are now on display at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

Arthur Andersen was founded in 1913 in Chicago and would become one the world's largest and most respected accounting firms. They were a member of the "Big Five" accounting firms until their collapse in 2002 after questionable accounting practices lead to the Enron and WorldCom bankruptcies. The firm was found to have engaged in unethical behavior by destroying documents related to its audit of Enron, which had been engaged in widespread accounting fraud. In 2002, following a conviction for obstruction of justice, the firm was effectively dissolved.
