19th Century Shield Shaped Tapestry made of Rowing Crew Award Silks sewm together.  The dates on the award silks ranges form 1875 to 1892, with most being from the early 1880s.  They seem to mostly be from the Michigan area, and I noticed the following Rowing Clubs:  The Detroit Boat Club, The Michigan Yacht Club, The Grand River Boad Club, and the Undine Boat Club.  The Undine Boat Club silk features a great graphic of rowers in their boat and dates to 1882.  The piece measures 28 inches long and 25 inches wide at its widest point.   This piece is very fragile, and has pieces of some ribbons worn away, or missing.  Still presents beautifully, and is a very unique rowing piece. $250	1905 Crescent Boat Club 3 Handled SilverPlate Trophy.  The Crescent Boat Club was organized in 1867 and there boathouse is still present  on famous Boathouse Row in Philadelphia.  The trophy is about 7.5 inches tall and the cup not counting the three handles is about 6 inches wide.  Hallmark on bottom reading Caldwell & Co Philadelphia SOLD	1976 Muhammad Ali vs Ken Norton Press Ticket stub.  This is a Radio & TV Employee on Duty ticket.  Great looking with no stains or tears, just a couple very minor creases.  - $75
