beth h Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 A junk shop score, found at the bottom a basket of 25-cent campaign buttons. What is it? There’s no loop for it to hang as a medal. It’s a little smaller than a half-dollar. And how old is it? And if it's not a medal, what's it for? Don't know how to paste photo here, so check the links. Thanks. https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=3749253581869811&set=pcb.3010085785980228 https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=3749253598536476&set=pcb.3010085785980228 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IllianaLancerContra Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Drum Beauty was an annual contest that was held in Stillwater MN on the 70's & 80's; maybe earlier or later as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drum Beauty was the actual name of the contest. They had lots of memorabilia, including record albums, buttons, etc. The show first started Aug. 5, 1956 (Cavaliers, Madison, Kilties). For many years the contests (into the 1990s) were held two consecutive nights to accommodate the large crowds. The show lasted well into the 21st century.
