Listed are two vintage Nebraska Traveling souvenirs. First is a new old stock 1970's vintage Nebraska State Sew On Patch. Condition is excellent, never used. This patch depicts Scotts Bluffs Chimney Rock. The history about this historical scenery is that it has become one of the most famous landmarks in the American West. The first recorded mention of Chimney Rock was in 1827 by Joshua Pilcher. He journeyed up the Platte River valley to the Salt Lake rendezvous of the Rocky Mountain fur trappers. The first non-natives to see the pillar were probably the Astorians of Robert Stuart in their eastern journey from the Pacific Ocean in 1813.In 1941, the 80 acres containing the site were transferred to the Nebraska State Historical Society by the Roszel F. Durnal family. In 1956, Norman and Donna Brown deeded additional land to the society. In that same year, Chimney Rock was designated a National Historic Site by the federal government.
Second, is an original Lindgren-Turner Co. Water Decal. It does have the direction for applying package. If you have any questions, please let us know. Thank you! (TMB1)
