Plaque is an image of Jennie’s Wade home in Gettysburg, PA.  Labeled with, “HOUSE IN WHICH JENNIE WADE WAS SHOT,/ GETTYSBURG, PA.” The house is colored making it the focal point of the picture.  The oval picture is inlayed with gold gilt. The item was manufactured by Cruver Manufacturing Company of Chicago; purveyors of celluloid novelties in the early to mid-1900s.  The item measures 5” long and 3 ½” wide.  There is also a metal chain to make the item ornamental.  Once affixed to the reverse is a tag that reads “2 JUNE 94.”, which has become separated from the item but remains with it.  The date is most likely a sales date not a manufacture date.

This Jennie Wade souvenir is in good condition, and is a nice, vintage Gettysburg collectible.  [mk] [ph:L]
