Item Description
2x3" card stock badge in plastic holder w/horizontal bar pin. Text along base "November 6, 1962 Beverly Hilton Hotel." Worn by a member of the press covering the election night event. After a close race that was contested through the night, Nixon addressed about 100 members of the media Wednesday morning in a speech chastising the press stating "You Won't Have Nixon To Kick Around Any More. Because, Gentlemen, This Is My Last Press Conference." Pair of pin holes in holder and card just below and to the right of #1. Otherwise moderate handling wear. Fine. Rare. Rarely offered and likely unique. John Pendergrass Collection.
