Presidential Political Campaign Buttons 1896-1908
| Framed assortment of buttons and pins representing the presidential campaigns of William McKinley versus William Bryan (1896-1900), Theodore Roosevelt versus Alton Parker (1904), and William Taft versus William Bryan (1908). Most are typical round buttons showing the portraits of the candidates, but a few oddities appear, such as a bee with McKinley and Hobart's portraits on the wings, and a metal button of Theodore Roosevelt riding an elephant. |
