Chicago, Illinois - Measurement:
- 16.51 x 6.35 (Ribbon) (centimeters)
- Description:
- Ribbon worn by the members of the Allentown, Pennsylvania, delegation to the 1888 Republican National Convention held in Chicago, Illinois. Item donor Susan H. Douglas' notes indicate there was once a blank space at the top of the ribbon, so the color portrait of Benjamin Harrison may be a relatively recent addition to the ribbon.
