cptbilly Pillar of the Community United States 2009 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 2:37 pm Medallic Art Company Anniversary Medal Artist: Bruno Mankowski. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruno_Mankowski From the Wiki entry above: Quote: Mankowski won the 1949 design competition (and $1,500 prize) to create the medal commemorating the upcoming 50th anniversary of the Medallic Art Company. Its obverse featured an Art Deco relief bust of Minerva, Goddess of the Fine Arts, with a pantograph in the foreground, the device used to trace a relief for reduction. Its reverse featured the palm of a hand holding the same medal shown on the obverse. The work alluded to both the artistic inspiration and the mechanical process necessary to create a medal. Examples of the "Minerva Medal" are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, and other museums.
