Item Description
These three buttons were issued in 1912. The first is a 7/8" real photo reading "For Congress Allan B. Walsh." This, as well as the next two items, have back papers from the NYC firm Dieges & Clust. Next is 1.5" reading "Walsh Works With Wilson." While this is a 1912 item the slogan references the fact that Walsh was in the New Jersey General Assembly 1910-1911 while Wilson was New Jersey Governor. Couple trivial tiny light scratches only in reflected light. Exc. and displays NM. A tiny mark below the "T" of "With" was a dirt speck now removed. Last is a 1.25" version of the previous 7/8" button although this real photo button has extensive dark stain plus oxidation on the reverse collet. Also see Wilson related New Jersey local item for Robert Davis #508.
