Navy Dan Posted June 2, 2012 Share #1 Posted June 2, 2012 Hi Everyone, Just picked this up from a friend of mine and had to share . I have always wanted one of these but never expected one like this :w00t: The photo is on silk and the embroidery is then added to the bottom. It still has the paper attached to the back with no holes. I have only seen these with the small area for a portrait .

sigsaye Posted June 3, 2012 Share #7 Posted June 3, 2012 Very cool, love those photos. The tails on the hat ribbon and the lanyard make this pre 1913. I'd guess earlier. Steve Hesson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
