Item Description
4" w/union bug at 12 o'clock. Features bluetone profile portraits of the 1960 Democratic ticket that are not found on any other pinback designs. Three red stars in center w/candidates' last names below their portraits. Two small areas of missing cello along the curl along extreme outer edges at 11 and 11:30. Otherwise moderate surface wear seen in reflected light, most notably some surface scratches at 11 and 12 o'clock. Technically Fine. The near unique status of this jugate design make it among the most coveted pinbacks from the 1960 campaign. Possibly your only opportunity to obtain this ultra rare button. John Hillhouse Collection.
