Item Description
9" long w/union bug in field at bottom center. Silk. Hake #2053. Scattered light brown dots of foxing, a pair of pin holes in top margin and moderate handling wear. Fine. Unusual material for the 1920 Democratic ticket is notably rare and this ribbon,  only the second we've seen in our 55 years, certainly qualifies. Though the Cox/FDR ticket lost Indiana by 15 points, they fared much better here than nationally where they were defeated by 26 points.
