Spectacular Circa 1900 Ohio State University Large Fringed Leather School Crest Tapestry in a custom archival quality professional frame.  This beautiful OSU relic is housed in a professional frame measuring 39 inches wide by 25 inches tall, and the leather is atop an attractive red mat.  At the center of the leather is a leather Ohio State University school crest.  On the outer red leather ring is text that reads Ohio State University, Columbus Ohio.  This text dates the crest to before 1914, at which time the Ohio next to Columbus was dropped from the crest.  Inside this outer leather circle is a red leather pyramid, with text reading: Letters, Science, Arts, Agriculture, Knowledge.  Below this pyramid is the year 1870 (the year this crest was adopted).  These college leathers are exceedingly rare, and this beautiful Ohio State University example would be a great addition to any OSU collection.
