Obvious wear and fraying to ribbon.
Appears previous owner applied a newer piece of red ribbon on reverse to reinforce it a bit.
Please review all photos.
Democratic Nominee and President Woodrow Wilson won the election and another term in office that year.
A very nice piece of history and a fine addition to your collection.
