Item Description
1.75" button with text in Hebrew that translates to "Kahane For Knesset/Vote League." Button has some bleed of the dark blue text onto the white background as made. There are also a pair of tiny 1/16" indent lines on extreme right edge. Button still displays clean and glossy. We've seen another button from his successful run for the Knesset in 1984 but that was for the Kach Party. Eventually his party was banded in Israel for being racist and in 1990 he was assassinated in NY by an Arab gunman. Also see following related button for the organization he founded. From the Marshall Levin Collection. Comes with Hake's COA. One of the few buttons to picture him.
