Item Description
1.75" and 3/16" thick w/"N.J. Aluminum Co." on reverse. Raised letters read "Get Your Eye On This" and "Before And After." The before features a small portrait of "McKinley" at top and a sword wielding "Teddy" headed up "San Juan" Hill in the distance at top right. When the cord at bottom is pulled the 'After' is revealed w/Teddy kicking a donkey labeled "Democracy" who is wearing a "16 to 1" bandana across his brow. For accuracy we note a small scratch at the extreme edge at 9 o'clock and that the pin on reverse is slightly loose. In perfect working condition w/outstanding crisp graphics.  Exc./NM. A truly dynamic and rare campaign artifact that is only the second known to us.
