Handsome loving cup manufactured by the Queen City Silver Company of Cincinnati and presented to the Pacific Electric Accountants team, who were champions of a "Mercantile and Manufacturers Baseball League" in 1924, all of which is elegantly engraved on one side of the cup.  The reverse reads "Presented by Rawlings Manufacturing Co. St. Louis"

The cup rests upon a stand of three stylized baseball bats, with a baseball in the middle, all of which rests upon a silver base.  The entire cup measures approximately 10" in height at its tallest. Though the trophy has lost some of its silver plating, it has developed a nice patina over the years. Early baseball trophies and awards are highly desirable and display incredibly well; this example is particularly attractive.
