Item Description
Each piece is 5.5" to 7" tall. All are dated for the 1953 inaugural. The first piece has "Vice Chairman" on the blue ribbon holding the brass fob depicting the official inaugural logo. This piece is essentially Mint. The second piece has similar text in gold but the brass fob is inscribed "Fourth North Eastern Jurisdictional Conference Carlisle, PA 1952/Harrisburg Pa." We're not sure what this medallion is doing on a 1953 Ike inaugural ribbon but this is how it came. Third has a hanger bar with "Hospitality" rank. Just the slightest toning on the white fabric. Fourth is 1.75" inaugural button. Fifth and Sixth are pair of portrait and slogan flashers reading "Welcome Mr. President." One ribbon in blue, and one in red. Overall VF to Mint.
