Item Description
7" overall w/1.75" framed cello. The button is Hake #3208 but this example has a tabbed on brass rope rim and spring pin holds 5" ribbon. Spring pin suspends a rebus ribbon that reads "Our 'Hat' Is In The Ring." The Hat is a fully three dimensional white metal replica of Roosevelt's Rough Rider hat and it is held to the ribbon by the means of a small brass rivet at the top with a pair of tiny fold over brass prongs on the underside. In addition to being one of the very few rebus ribbons, this is also unusual in that the rebus is actually formed by a three dimensional symbolic object and not just a picture of something substituting for a word. Cello has light scattered wear and is Exc. Ribbon has moderate wear and handling and is VF. A scarce 1912 badge. Wayne Otchis Collection.
