Item Description

Ribbon includes eagle above star and stripe design centered by oval illustration in gold of a knight with feather plumes on his helmet. Suspended below is 1-1/8" white medal with Mint luster featuring a design of flags and feather plumes surrounding jugate images with full names below of Blaine and Logan. Reverse reads "Republican Candidates 1884/For President and Vice President Of The United States." Reverse of the ribbon includes the words "Our Next President" and Sullivan notes these are sometimes found without the suspension bar present on this one. One light diagonal crease of the fabric below the oval but all else is Essentially Mint. Includes Ford's notated paper envelope and labeled plastic holder from Stacks Bowers auction Sept. 19-20, 2013. Formerly in the collection of F.C.C. Boyd and Wayte Raymond prior to Ford. A beautiful rarity that exceeded $600.00 in the Stacks auction.
