Description: This superb and rare Harvard University trophy is a striking example of early 20th-century craftsmanship and collegiate tradition. Produced by N.G. Wood & Sons of Boston, Massachusetts, in 1908, this silver-plated trophy boasts a bold, powerful design, featuring magnificent triple antler handles that evoke strength and prestige. The copper lip and base provide an elegant contrast to the silver plate, enhancing its visual appeal. Presented by L.H. Cushman for the "Bottle Pin" record to the Red Dragons Club of Harvard University, this trophy stands as a symbol of achievement and camaraderie. At its center, the prestigious Harvard University crest or shield, crafted in copper, adds a further touch of distinction and heritage, making it a unique collector's piece. Measuring 7.75 inches high, 10 inches wide, and 9.5 inches deep, and weighing just under 2 pounds, the trophy's impressive proportions command attention. The base is impressed with "N.G. Wood & Sons," confirming its origin from a respected Boston silversmith. Good antique condition with some wear to surfaces and few small indents.
