Gold ring Mens 10k wedding band Chicago Worlds Fair bracelet Mark Parker of W&E says: The Century of Progress Exposition (1933 Chicago world's fair) souvenir bracelet that you found was produced both as a simple cuff style and with a buckle-like attachment, and in both silver and gold finishes. There are also varieties dated "1833 / 1934." I don't believe these were marked; but if so, I can't recall who made them.

Captain Midnight "Flight Patrol" Membership Medallion One of the most popular children's programs, Captain Midnight was sponsored during the 1939-40 season by the Skelly Oil Company and for the remainder of it's run by Ovaltine. 10-17-39 Subject of episode, 'Parada Comes Home.' The 1940 Captain Midnight Flight Patrol was seeking members, and if you joined you would be eligible for free gifts and prizes. You could join at your Skelly station where you received an official Junior Pilot's Membership Card. The Skelly man would then send for your second gift, a burnished bronze Medal of Membership. This medal contained a mysterious secret password that only Flight Patrol members would understand. The medal was about the size of a half-dollar and had pictures of Captain Midnight, Chuck and Patsy on one side and a clock on the other. One side had a 'bump' in the middle so the medal could be used as a spinner. This was handy for determining such critical issues of the day as who would be captain of the team or who would go to the store for mother. Reproductions were made in the '70s with an R inside the Skelly logo on the back. 1897 Kansas City Karnival token This is a token from what was known as the Kansas City Karnival (KKK) however, non-racial in the least.   Although the 1897 Kansas City Karnival token is listed in the Standard Catalog of United States Tokens 1700-1900 by Russell Rulau, no detailed information is provided.   Rulau values it at $7-$10 in Uncirculated Condition.   The piece illustrated in the book is also holed, which would seem to suggest that the hole is as-made, rather than added at a later date.   My best guess is that it is actually the suspension medallion, or "drop" from a souvenir badge.   The Kansas City Karnival Krewe was reportedly founded in 1894 and held the event each October until 1903, after which it was discontinued as being "too boisetrous and riotous".   A Mardi Gras type carnival-season event, it was designed to coincide with the annual pageantries and revelries of the Priests of Pallas, which included huge parades and floats (at first on mule-drawn wagons and later on streetcar chassis), various contests and a masquerade ball.   The Priests of Pallas were active from 1887 through 1924.
