FOR PRESIDENT CHARLES E. BENTLEY.

Silk ribbon promoting Charles E. Bentley for president (National Party), 1896.  2 1/2 x 6".  Extremely rare ribbon from a short-lived pro-silver third party.  Some horizontal pulls in the fabric near the top of Bentley's head, a small hole near the top center, and a light circular indentation top center where a pinback was once attached.  We've only seen one other example that has been offered in the last 10+ years.
