And then 1964 brings us to the quatercentenary of Shakespeare's birth. Again, this medal used to have a top loop.  |

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is among the oldest & largest non-profit theatres in the nation, putting on productions in Ashland, Oregon. They often had annual medals for the festival, this from their 25th season in 1965.  |

Some medals are too large for cases. This 1964 Czechoslovak Shakespeare medal measures almost 3" across.  |

Interesting group of medals, I really like super thick one, compared to your Slovak medal you can tell it cast a pretty good shadow!
