bill Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 A brass souvenir pictoral souvenir medal struck by L. H. Moise for the 1897 Christian Endeavor national convention in San Francisco. Arches, such as the one pictured here, were often erected on Mission Street for major events. The arch was memorialized on Moise's souvenir medal shown overlaid on the picture of the arch.

Art1.2 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Having the medal and the photo both is super. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 The medal on its own gives no indication of the size of the arch but with the photo, which shows people & trams, you can quite accurately gauge its dimensions. A great combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
