This is a fine piece of history from a Civil War veteran. It is an original reunion badge that was worn by a member of the Grand Army of the Republic. This was the veteran's organization of the Union veterans of the Civil War. In order to become a member of the organization you had to prove that you served honorably for the United States during the war. This is the badge that the veteran would have worn for funerals of the members. It has the black ribbon and in the white center reads "IN MEMORIAM". At the top it has the Unionville, Connecticut location as well as noting it was for the General "A.E. BURNSIDE" Post No. 462 The original attachment pin is missing from the top. The ribbon has the wear but displays well. It isn't often that you get a chance to get one of these from the Burnside Post. Item #: C4112 Shipping Weight:
0.6 lb
Your Price:$79.00 USD
