FS/Trade: 1908 - Garry Herrmann (Cincinnati Reds) Celluloid / Pinback Medal

Bumpus Jones · #1 08-05-2014, 08:53 PM

For Sale/Trade:

Nice early 20th century medal/ribbon. Medal appears to be brass or bronze. Not sure if its solid or plated??? Attached to the medal is a circular celluloid photo depicting Garry Herrmann. The former owner of the Cincinnati Reds. First unofficial commissioner of baseball and father of the World Series. Photo measures approximately 3/4" in diameter. Medal measures about 4 1/4" x 2 1/4". Very good condition but has some staining / discoloration and corrosion. Heavy! Any bowling collectors out there???

If interested, please email me with questions or to request a price.

Thanks

Hmmmm, I have the exact same one. So much for me thinking it was Gus' personal one

Best of luck with the sale, as it's a rare and regal looking piece!
