Steward badge from the London 1908 Olympics. Silvered bronze, 57 mm in diameter, stamped on the reverse with a Vaughton of Birmingham maker's mark. The badge depicts the head of Athena facing a laurel branch and encircled by a blue enameled border with the text, "Olympic Games London 1908, Steward." Retains its pin-and-hoop closure on the reverse. An attractive badge from an Olympic Games that extended for over six months—the longest in modern history.
