Prizes

"Blue ribbon" is a term used to describe something of high quality, such as a blue-ribbon panel or a blue-ribbon commission. This comes from the practice of awarding blue ribbons for first place in competitions. The Blue Riband is a prize awarded since the 1860s to the ship that made the fastest trans-Atlantic crossing.
