Utah Indian War Veterans Association Ribbon

Commemorative ribbon in shadow box frame [11 3/4" x 9 3/4"]. Lacking the original display box. Blue ribbon with the statement "Utah Indians War Association" stamped in silver, and a top bar of white enamel, bordered in gilt, with a Territory of Utah seal at the center. Also attached is an American flag ribbon with a hanging white enamel medallion depicting an American Indian in captivating full headdress. Tassels at the foot. The ribbons and attached medallions are exceptionally well-preserved and bright. Given to Indian War Veterans who suppressed hostilities in Utah during the years 1850 through 1872. Remarkably unfaded. A fine, very bright, example of a ribbon which represents a historically important juncture in Utah and American history.
