Item Description
Items are 7.5" to 9" tall. First has cello bar pin reading "Eleventh Wis. Vet. Infty." Fabric suspends 1.75" celluloid picturing "Gen'l C.L. Harris." Item was issued for a reunion in Madison 1907. Light general age but no serious damage and the celluloid is clean. Second item is from a G.A.R. Post in Chandler, Okla. Cello bar shows clasped hands and suspended is beautifully colored celluloid depicting the group's award badge. Small bit of discoloration on the back of the badge which put some stain on the white fabric ribbon although the badge largely covers it. Tiny fabric loss at the lower corners of the white ribbon but the black ribbon remains complete and clean. Third item is an "In Memoriam" badge from the same Post in Chandler. This has silver luster embossed bar hanger with unusually designed cello insert reading "G.A.R." A little age tone on this but the fabric remains Exc. First we've seen G.A.R. items from as far west as Oklahoma. Overall Fine.
