Gilded cup (3 ½” high; 2 ¼” in diameter) with raised copper images of four buildings at the 1904 Saint Louis World’s Fair commemorating the centenial of the Louisian Purchase. Buildings are identified as the U. S. Government, Manufactures , Liberal Arts, and Varied Industries buildings.

In moderately good condition. Tarnished copper and gilt finishes could be brightened up with care. Two small spots of missing gilt and one small green spot do are not distracting. Some finish lifting under the base. Still a good souvenir of the days of “Meet Me in Saint Louis!
