1915 Panama Exposition Gold award given to A.H. Fox gun

[Roger1976]

I just found this in an old home and hoping someone knows about this. I purchased an old award dated 1915 and given to the A.H.Fox company in Philadelphia Pa. It is a gold award for their double barrel shotguns and more. Hand signed and dated. On the top it says 1915 Panama exposition. Does anyone know the value or history behind this?

We need to see some good pictures or scans. Tom Kidd was selling repros of the parchment certificate a decade or two ago. Reproductions of the Blue Ribbon were pasted on the covers of many of the 1916 and 1917 A.H. Fox Gun Co. catalogs. Here on a 1917 --

I reread he articles about the exposition. It indicated there were 65 guns at the expo. Has a list ever surfaced that contains those guns? I know there are members with guns from the exhibit. Perhaps there were notes on their factory cards?
