The ribbon is shaped like a long verticle rectangle with the text formated down the ribbon with the words on top of each other. The ribbon has a corrogated edge on both the top and the bottom edges. The text gives information about the "NEW MEXICO / FIREMEN'S / CONVENTION / AND FIRE / COLLEGE" with the location and date given at the bottom as "RATON / NEW MEXICO / JUNE 8-9-10, 1953." In between the convention and date information is a printed image of a fireman's helmet in front of a hook, axe, and ladder all crossing each other at the middle.
