Very nice collectionf 1948 was the 50th Anniversary of the Spanish American War then we should be coming up on the 120th Anniversary in 2018.
How much did you pay for those medals?
Nice score

The price for the complete collection was ridiculous, the reason I got them.....

And then, I remembered I had these at home.....Horatio S Rubens autographs....

Nice matchup ....for Spanish war memorabilia

That's the reason I like to be sitting on memorabilia, The sometimes comeback together.....
.
Just like these printing plates reunited with the vintage baseball cards from the Montreal Royals...
