No Third Term, Beat It! Timely Pair of 1940/1910 Pinbacks lead whimsy There is a little irregularity

There is a little irregularity to the cuts on the sides

though this pig is still my favorite

the top is just a bit bent on one corner and there is one tiny tear in the copper on the edge of the top where it folds over the body of the pitcher

which I think I can likely very carefully remove with tweezers

These three are sepia toned

No Third Term, Beat It! Timely Pair of 1940/1910 Pinbacks lead whimsy There is a little irregularityI found these both digging through one old box, filled with lots of other things too, and as I pulled them out I realized they make a perfect and very timely pair. The No Third Term button was made in 1940, in opposition to FDR running for a third term as president. The Beat It button is c. 1910s I believe, with a Rube Goldberg illustration of marching drummer, I think maybe a Hassan cigarette giveaway. I would wear them prominently everyday now
