Artifact Road Trip - Idaho

In 1954, Eleanor Roosevelt traveled to the Northwest on behalf of the American Association for the United Nations in the hope of getting better organization in the states of Montana, Idaho and Wyoming. Mrs. Roosevelt received this commemorative trophy at an event in Pocatello, Idaho on September 30, 1954. She mentions the day’s events in her October 4, 1954 “My Day” column.
