This is a political button from the 1924 presidential campaign retailer of Calvin Coolidge and Charles Dawes. The button is a lithographed button with a white background (yellowed with age) and two oval black and white portraits of the candidates in the center. Above the portraits is the inscription "FOR/ PRESIDENT VICE PRESIDENT" and beneath the portraits it reads "COOLIDGE" and "DAWES." The maker's mark on the back reads "The Whitehead & Hoag CO./ Buttons, Badges, Novelties and Signs/ Newark, N.J." I don't usually do political buttons but this was quite a find and I could not resist. It is from an estate sale in Iowa 2022.
