GAR Naval Reunion Badge

Greetings all!

 

I wanted to share this one. I had never before run across one of these before--a reunion badge for Naval veterans. Very good condition though I cannot make out the maker mark without a magnifying glass at this time. 1906 Minneapolis encampment. Please feel free to contribute any Navy examples you might have!

I have been looking at G.A.R. reunion badges for close to 20 years and I have never come across this badge in all that time. The condition is excellent and I would dare to say that it is rather uncommon to find one from this National Encampment.

 

The Naval Veterans badges that I have come across are

 

1899 Philadelphia

1900 Chicago

1903 San Francisco

1917 Boston

1919 Columbus

(Only the 1900 Chicago badge is in my collection)

 

It would be great if others could add more photos to this thread. Thank you for starting it!
