Army of The Cumberland 1889 Reunion Book /Medal

Description

Amazing set of 1889 Reunion items for The Army of The Cumberland from The Civil War. The set includes the 1889 Reunion Booklet (6 pages) called "Ferns and Leaves from Chattanooga Battlefields". The book is extremely scarce but finding any of the ferns or leaves present still is remarkable. This one has 2 of the 4 remaining intact from the battlefield in 1889. The medal is in very good condition and is complete. The only real wear is in the ribbon which has worn down and has pulled some. The Reunion took place on September 18, 19, and 20 of 1889 at Chattanooga. You never see either one of these items ever turn up. This is the first set of these that we have ever encountered. You'll find reunion items from Gettysburg much more than Chattanooga. Army of the Cumberland items are scarce if you can even find them. This is a one time chance to own both the medal and the reunion book from 1889. You won't ever see both together again. There are just not that many left.
