M. Jones". Fourth quarter 19th/first half 20th century. Box for large ribbon 11 1/4" x 3 1/2" OA.
Catalogue Note: The "A.M. Jones" whose name appears on two of these pieces is probably Albert Maywood Jones (1867-1945) who lived in Wheeling, WV most of his adult life. It's relatively likely that he also owned the large boxed example, possibly all four.
Very good to excellent condition, most appearing to be unused; the boxed example with some discoloration to the lightest part of the ribbon near the flags (probably caused by the acid from the box).
The estate collection of Dennis Trischler, Woodbridge, VA.
(At least two) Ex-estate collection of Albert Maywood Jones, Wheeling, WV.
