WW1 US AEF USAS Named Medals & Named Pilot Dallas Wings by Bailey Banks & Biddle

This is a good condition WW1 US AEF USAS Named Medals & Named Pilot Dallas Wings by Bailey Banks & Biddle. The state medal for New Jersey is named to Capt NJ Thorp Jr.

The ribbon is fragile and is tearing because of it being silk. The victory medal is named to him on the rim as Capt JN Thorp Jr Aviator USA. I do not know if this is common to have US Victory medals named on the rim or not as it is the first I have seen.

The collars are not exactly matching with one being two piece and the other being one piece both without maker marks. The eagle and one star pennant is also not maker marked but has excellent enamel on it and shows well. The Paterson New Jersey town medal is also named to Capt JN Thorp Jr on the back of it. The wing are outstanding and come complete with a pin on the back. The gold overlay for the US is nicely toned as are the siler wings and shield.

They are 3 1/2 inches across. Capt JN Thorp is on the internet and is easily researchable. Also included is a US Aviation 1 star pennant approx 11x 6.5 inches. Originally this was all in a frame but I had to remove it from the frame to make sure that everything was original.
