See the scans of the front and back. This is a nice, old New York State fire company convention ribbon given by the Crystals of Binghamton to the Emeralds from Hornellsville (Hornell). The American Museum of Firefighting in Hudson, New York, which has some great displays, has on display ust inside the entrance hall, an interesting old twelve foot high fire vehicle built for the Crystals in 1876 for $2,500. The Maple City and the Emerald were two of thee hose companies in Hornell back in the old days. Presumedly, the Emerald Hose was an all Irish company. 7 1/2 inclhes long. Brass pinback brooch. Gold imprint on yellow ribbon. Central vignette is an old fashioned hose wagon. About VF condition, minor soiling, sound, unlike many this old. NO RESERVE !!! NOTE: I am very good about getting my orders out promptly, sometimes same day and almost always within 24 hours. However, lately the U.S. postal "service" has been very spotty. In the last several months, I have had first class insured items take over a month to California and two weeks in New York State. Most are delivered in a timely fashion, but a few are not. NEW RULES FOR 2007 - NO OVERSEAS SALES, CANADA AND U.S. ONLY. Sorry about that, but my airmail small packets are being stolen enroute to England and Belgium. ALSO: ALL ITEMS MUST HAVE AT LEAST MINIMUM ($50) INSURANCE. NO
