Abstract
Description
This is a collection of two medals: a commemorative medal from the 52nd General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church
(oval shaped, bronze colored with gold ribbon and metal clasp attached) manufactured by Whitehead-Hoag and a German Franco-Prussian War commemorative medal (circular, iron, with orange ribbon attached), manufacturer unknown. Both medals were originally housed in a small white cardboard box (8 x 5 x 3 cm).
The medals were brought to the Preservation Lab to be properly housed in an archival sink mat. A custom panel was created with mat board, a foam sheet and covered with Canapetta cloth to secure both medals inside the sink mat. Using the metal clasp attached to the commemorative medal from the 52nd General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church, this medal was clasped to the custom cloth panel. The German Franco-Prussian War commemorative medal was secured with magnets, which were laminated between the mat board and the cloth of the custom panel.
