American Legion
National Convention Programs & Medals

  The following are some of the national convention medals and the corresponding programs from my private collection. I will be selling the entire collection of medals and programs in the near future. If you have an interest in the collection please send an email to NordhornAntiques@Comcast.net.

   The medals were given to the participants from the first convention in 1919 thru 1983. In 1984 (the 66th national convention) the medals could be purchased but were not issued. The American Legion still makes some traditional badges with the legion ribbon but only for distinguished guest or officers.
