Item Description
This depiction of Uncle Sam with bayoneted rifle and “US” backpack comes in numerous forms but this is the largest of all versions as a brass shell pin accented in silver luster plus blue and red enamel paint. While we’ve had the pin once or twice, we’ve never seen it on original card. Card has some st. wear on its blank reverse from a previous mounting and includes a small piece of archival tape at the top edge to repair a .25” top edge tear. Additional text on bottom of the card is the slogan “Gosh Darn Yer!” Tiny paint wear on the pin itself. Card is Fine and the pin is Exc. See war related Roosevelt calendar card #53, warships fold-out postcard #58, TR syroco figure #61 and TR in Rough Rider uniform button #272.
