Full Description:
Up for sale is an authentic, highly collectible original vintage 1965 Presidential Inaugural Ribbon Badge celebrating the 45th Inauguration of Lyndon B. Johnson and Hubert H. Humphrey on January 20, 1965.
Unlike common souvenir ribbons from this event, this specific piece features a white celluloid header insert inside a gold-tone metal frame boldly marked "COMMISSARY", indicating it was an official badge issued to staff or workers managing supply/food distribution during the inaugural festivities.
• Front Details: The white silk ribbon features crisp, clear text reading "1789-1965 / 45th INAUGURAL" at the top, a detailed gold-stamped official Inaugural Seal featuring the US Capitol Building, followed by "LYNDON B. JOHNSON / HUBERT H. HUMPHREY / JANUARY 20th 1965".
• Back Details: The gold-tone badge backing features a secure safety-pin clasp mechanism in excellent functional order. The back of the ribbon header shows original manufacturer markings stamped from Rochester, N.Y.
• Dimensions: Approximately 5 1/2” long by 1 5/8” wide.
Condition Note:
Excellent vintage condition. The silk ribbon is clean with exceptionally sharp gold lettering and graphics. No significant fraying, staining, or severe discoloration. The pin on the reverse functions perfectly. Please review the high-resolution photos for a closer look at the exact item condition.
Perfect addition to any political history, presidential inauguration, or LBJ ephemera collection!
