<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Garlicus, post: 3542042, member: 73190&quot;]I saw one of these at an antiques market, and I had to have one. Didn’t like their price (non-negotiable for items under $100, and I can understand that policy due the the hassle it avoids) so I just bought a nice, professionally framed one elsewhere for a little less money (although I did like the cheap, old frame that the other was in....gave it character).</p><p><br /></p><p>These were sent out for the Great War, before the Purple Heart was authorized in 1932. They were also ‘awarded’ to military members that were wounded in action, which is the one I saw and the the one I purchased. Approximately 10x16.</p><p><br /></p><p>They really are nice looking pieces. This pic doesn’t do them justice.</p><p>Now, I am also going to have to research/read about Columbia, and how/why she and Liberty look so much alike.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]941525[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
