Item Description
2x7". Taffeta silk ribbon shows trim home with picket fence in foreground. Beneath party name is circular design with "16 to 1" at center and text around "Free And Unlimited Coinage Of Silver And Gold." Couple small creases. Totally clean. First we've seen. A rare Third Party ribbon. While the party endorsed the Democratic nominee W.J. Bryan, they could not abide Bryan's more conservative running mate Arthur Sewall and therefore nominated their own Tom Watson as VP.
