Item Description
1.25" photo button of the famous radio broadcasting right-wing Catholic priest turns up with some regularity but what does not turn up is the lightly worn attached ribbon "Welcome Father Coughlin Head Of N.U.S.J." Blue color has faded some with tiny hole on bottom edge. Also, tiny spot of fabric gone from upper left corner. Button itself remains essentially Mint. Second item, first seen by us, is a brass hanger inscribed "Cleveland, Ohio" with penciled name on inserted cardboard that reads "Dist. #1 Conn." Below is lightly worn but still easily readable ribbon with gold text "Delegate/First National Convention/National Union For Social Justice/August 1936/Cleveland." Tiny bit of brown stain on the bottom of the ribbon. Rare.
