| A medal from the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
in St. Louis in 1904. One side has a scene of the Cascade Gardens
and the other seems to have 2 gentlemen in exchange of a document. Medal
is in excellent condition. It has a small chain link at top. It might
have been on a chain at one time or on a badge or ribbon. Still a beautiful
historic item from an exposition during President Teddy Roosevelt's administration.
