1908 Democratic National Convention Pennsylvania Badge (Wm Jennings Bryan) Badge. The convention nominated William Jennings Bryan for President. Tan cello button imprinted with keystone with vintage state logo. Suspended form the cello is a short blue ribbon imprinted Democratic Convention Denver July 7, 1908. Not the most attractive badge but hard to find. Original.
From the Gary Burhop Collection.
Based on a 1778 design by Caleb Lownes of Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania coat of arms features a shield crested by an American bald eagle, flanked by horses, and adorned with symbols of Pennsylvania's strengths - a ship carrying state commerce to all parts of the world; a clay-red plough (a symbol of the Pennsylvania's rich natural resources); and three golden sheaves of wheat, representing fertile fields and Pennsylvania's wealth of human thought and action. An olive branch and cornstalk cross limbs beneath - symbols of peace and prosperity. The state motto ("Virtue Liberty and Independendence") appears festooned below.
