Did a search on the net for this medal and found this site.
http://www.searsarchives.com/history/questions/babycontest.htm
Also found a site of a person that found a medal exactly like this one with a detector. It looks like Sears only had one baby contest and it was in 1934. What I would really like to know is how many honorable mentions were awarded and the possible value. I doubt it is worth much but if there were say, only 10 honorable mentions, then it could be worth something. If there were hundreds then it probably is not worth much.
If someone is willing to do the work to find out I would really, really appreciate it.
Thanks.
