LARGE LOT OF GAR AND VETERAN RIBBONS, MEDALS, AND MEMORABILIA. An extremely large lot consisting of approx. 200 ribbons, medals and badges from the Grand Army of the Republic and related organizations mostly from Michigan and Ohio. There are a number of rare and significant badges and ribbons of both national and local encampments dating from 1880 through approx. 1920. There are three orig ribbon envelopes made out to Orron Vanderhoof, who was a Corp. in the 124th Ohio Vol. Inf, from Grand Haven, MI whose collection of memorabilia this may be. While many of the badges are for national encampments across the country, the largest grouping seems to be from MI and OH. Vanderhoof’s German silver ladder badge for Co. I, 127th IL. Vol. Inf. is included along with the Adjutant’s badge for the Weathermax Post #75 from Grand Haven, MI. There is a magnificent cased gilt silver and enameled 39th National Encampment badge, and a GAR membership badge with a Colonel’s rank shoulder strap affixed. I’m sure that there are a number of great GAR treasures within this collection. The shear volume and the early dates make this a valuable accumulation. CONDITION: Fair to very good. Items are too numerous to describe in detail, but range in condition from tattered to pristine. 4-57387 (3,000-5,000)
