Item Description
In photo order we have 1-5/8" "Employee 5620." This is missing its bar pin from the back and front has numerous spots of silver luster off. Condition is just Good but the only Employee badge we've ever seen from the fair. Second is 1.5" fob with fair name and date. NM. Third is well made brass lapel stud naming the fair along with "Tennessee/1904/The Hermitage." Nice lustrous finish. Fourth is 2.25" tall highly embossed large oval with symbolic male and female figures superimposed over building "Palace of Arts." Piece was once silvered but only a few touches remain. Otherwise no damage. Last is large 1-15/16" embossed brass with bar pin reverse. This shows a tall monument with text "Louisiana Purchase Monument Saint Louis 1904." Minor scattered tarnish but a rarity.
