Description
This shield-shaped ivory color celluloid pin is printed with an image of Lee in a rococo bordered frame with a wreath at bottom on which is superimposed a shield bearing the ANV battle flag crossing a saber with sword knot, and typical Confederate wood canteen at right bearing the letters CSA in case anyone was in doubt. The maker name is in very small letters at lower right. At bottom center is “LOUISVILLE. / MAY, 1900.” This was the tenth national reunion of the United Confederate Veterans, held from May 30 through June 3. This one still has the original red silk strand with none of the points broken off. About as mint as they come with good color.
