Banner of the Sociedad Coro Marítimo Badalonés

1900-1950

The Coro Marítimo Badalonés society was a choral and mutual aid organization founded in 1900, which operated until 1994. The premises were located on Passeig de la Rambla, no. 4, next to the building known as Ca l’Escanyaralets, where there is currently an architect’s office.

Although the main activity was that of a choral organization, the venue had a small stage that made it easy to create a scenic tableau.

It is not known when the banners were made, although both have the date 1900 embroidered on the back, which probably refers to the year of foundation. Despite not knowing the date, due to the fabrics and the design of the banners, it seems that the piece with no. of inventory 5981 is older than the other.

Also preserved are some penón ties (inv. MB 16172 to MB 16180) and some commemorative medals of the organization’s participation in various cantadas (inv. MB 4856-MB 4862, MB 5791-MB 5972).

Material: Embroidered silk fabric and trim Dimensions: 107 x 95 cm Ref.: Inv. MB 5980
