Miniature Portrait of Emma Willard on leather in antique banner made for Emma Willard School. Emma Willard miniature portrait is carved into the leather, as are all the letters, wreath and oil lamp of the Emma Willard school emblem. This antique school banner is of interest to portrait miniature collectors, as well as educational history collectors. This highly unusual antique school banner bears the Emma Willard School emblem made of pure leather stitched onto a scalloped felt circle, which is in turn stitched onto the felt banner. Each end has lettering and wreath of white felt stitched on above the twisted fringes. Purple can be seen on the back to be the original color of the felt, which now shows some uneven fading to blue (from being folded away in storage many decades). Chicago Pennant Co label on back. Antique wool felt bug holes (tiny black specks in closeups) and fading notwithstanding, this exceptional antique banner is well worth preserving, is an ideal size for table or piano scarf, as well as wall hanging. 58 inches long x 16 wide.
