Bryan and Sewall Rare 1896 Jugate Ribbon
<B>Bryan and Sewall: A Rare 1896 Jugate Ribbon With "16 to 1" Clockface.</B></I> "16 to 1" was, of course, the rallying cry for Bryan's first presidential run. It referred to the ratio of silver to gold desired by the silver-producing western states where Bryan had a strong following.<BR>Various campaign items were produced employing the device of a clockface, with the time set at 16 minutes to 1:00. This is one of the nicest- and rarest. We can't recall having seen more than couple of others over the years. Condition is nice, with some light, general "aging" which detracts minimally. From the Norman Loewenstern Collection.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Small Collectibles (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
