Item Description
2" w/"MFD By Benson Studios NY 36" on curl at 12 o'clock. In 1952 supporters of Ike or Stevenson could have their photo taken and put on a button with the candidate of their choice. This variation produced for the 1956 campaign is notably rare. Trivial oxidation on metal reverse and light surface wear in reflected light. Exc. Only the fourth we've seen in our 55 years. See previous two lots for 1952 varieties. John Pendergrass Collection.
