Item Description
1.25" unlisted in Hake. Reverse back paper reads "Abe. Orman, Jobber/Buttons & Novelties/507 South St., Phila." Button was designed for use by salesmen who were loath to take a particular political position during the Presidential campaign. Thus both party candidates are shown within the design of an art nouveau styled locket. The concept is much more frequently seen on the FDR/Willkie salesman jugate. See related items featuring Bryan and Kern as #219 and following item featuring Taft and Sherman as #220. NM displaying Mint.
