Description:

This 1935 Diamond Jubilee commemorative medallion of the Pony Express was issued by the Oregon Trail Memorial Association and was struck by Whitehead & Hoag. Info on this token: Marysville observed the seventy-fifth anniversary of the running of the Pony Express with a three-day celebration held August 17, 18 and 19, 1935. On August 19 the rerun of the express by the Boy Scouts through the city on its way from Sacramento, Cal., to St. Joseph, Mo., was witnessed. Both the Marysville Marshall County News and The Advocate-Democrat published historical articles in issues contemporaneous with the celebration. The Oregon Trail Memorial Association supplied the Marysville committee with 1,000 Pony Express diamond jubilee memorial medals. The medals, which were designed by Win. H. Jackson, secretary of the association, are made of nickel.
