Item Description
2" tall ornate brass shell badge with immaculate ferrotype portraits, each with the man's name above. DeWitt shows only the lower portion of this piece as JG1880-19. The entire piece with the eagle hanger is shown as Hake #3029. The condition of this piece is truly incredible. Gorgeous deep brass luster with just the most trifle luster loss off the upper surface and tip of the eagle's wing at left. The ferrotype portraits are superb with a mirror-like gloss in reflected light. Garfield ferrotype jugates are a rarity and the condition of this piece we believe is unsurpassable.
