Hi,

Deutscher Tag means German day so it would commemorate a German day in Los Angeles in october 8th in 1905

did not find any information but found another example

it was a big success
https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85042462/1905-10-09/ed-1/seq-5/
unfortunately no mention of the commemorative medal.

It was.
as a side note. I thoroughly enjoyed some of the articles of that day.... funny to see news from back then. Like when a thief sawed a hole thru a floor and stole $140.

Thanks again,
Aaron
