Default Chicago

Beautiful stuff guys. Don't really have any Cubs or Whitesox stuff in my collection right now, but I do have something sort of related. It is this gold Chicago Athletic Association medal. The Chicago Athletic Association was founded in 1890 (one of the founding members was AG Spalding), and CAA member William Wrigley later adopted this C logo for the Cubs. The medal is marked on back Dieges and Clust, and with a name, that I have never been able to make out for certain (I suck at this old english lettering) - perhaps Lemke?
