19863
c. 1973; Jewel Companies Inc. – United States. Tall column trophy featuring a gilt sheep figure finial above a mirrored and wood-paneled shaft, set on a stepped wooden base with applied metal plaque. The plaque reads “Champion Sheep 1973 North Cook 4-H Fair Awarded by Jewel Companies Inc.” with an additional smaller figure mounted at the base. The design reflects typical mid-century to late 20th century award construction, combining wood, metal, and reflective elements for visual impact. Produced as a recognition piece for agricultural competition, tied to regional 4-H livestock exhibitions.
Visible wear throughout, including surface scratches, oxidation, and discoloration to metal components. Mirror panel shows clouding and wear. Wood base has scuffs and edge wear. Plaque remains legible with age-related patina.
