<B>McKinley & Hobart: A Great Pair of 1896 Silk Campaign Ribbons Picturing Jugate Mechanical Pins.</B></I> One crows "I told you so" with "See the winners" beneath the elephant. It depicts a brass pin which flips open to reveal the candidates' portraits. While the former example is rare, we have encountered it a couple of times before. However, we have not seen the second example which depicts the pin both closed and open. Both ribbons are in near-mint condition and nearly identical in size, measuring 1.6" x 5.5".<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Small Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
