Description:
McKinley & Roosevelt and Bryan & Stevenson: Matched Pair of Jugates. 1 1/4" jugates in tin frames with brooch attachments showing the two major party national tickets for 1900. These came out of a collection of buttons that originated in Missouri. Although unmarked, we are certain they were made by the St. Louis Button Company. The same design was used on sepia real photo pinbacks (in three sizes). These are in mint condition. We have seen two other examples of the McKinley, both with grey backgrounds. This one, perhaps unique, is browntone. (see 19972b to view the back sides) (Item 19972)
