Identifier:
2004.25.5
Description:
Round metal pin back button has a bright blue background and the words "McGovern President '72" written in white. Used for the 1972 Presidential Election between George McGovern and Richard Nixon.;These political buttons provide a glimpse of Democratic presidential candidates from the late 1920s through the middle 1980s. The Museum's current political button collection does not have buttons from these more recent campaigns so these will be a good additon to that collection.
