CAMPAIGN BUTTONS of the
Roaring 20
Click on the small thumbnail pictures to see the

The
1920s may have been the roaring 20s but for campaign buttons the time period
was lack luster to say the least.With
the advent of tin lithographed buttons being made cheaply and the campaigns
looking for cheap give-a-ways the items produced were graphically plain and the
variety small.
The holy grail of political collecting is the
Cox/Roosevelt Jugate, that comes in a few varieties.The small buttons picturing both James Cox and his running mate,
FDR, are extremely scarce. Wish I had one.
