Gay blades wore buttons initialed

Early political insignia in t h e
USA were made of brass, silver,
lead, wood and bone. Holes were
I bored in some so they could be
suspended from a watch fob.
Others displayed a "plank” from
the candidate's platform. . .
Celluloid buttons — fore-runners
of today's metal and plastic disks
— appeared in 1892 Since then,
the low cost and mass distribu
tion of such emblems — over 200
million in the '6O election — has
j popularized the phrase, “Button
holing the voter". . .
Button collectors have formed
i a society — the American Poli
tical Item Collectors Association—
for serious study of the deep-dyed
tradition . One member recent
ly turned over 20.000 items to the
Smithsonian Institution. . .
Almost anything that could
possibly endear a candidate’s
name and face to the public has
been dispensed — arm bands, hat
pins. socks, neckties, canes, par
asols, thimbles, pencils, plates,
decanters, matches. marching
costumes, and bumper stickers
which defy all efforts to remove
i them.
