Description: You are getting thirteen different, original, political buttons from the 1976 presidential election when Gerald Ford took on Jimmy Carter. Since Ford had been appointed Vice-President late in 1973 under Richard Nixon when Spiro Agnew resigned, after Nixon did the same thing, Ford became president in August 1974. Because no one across this country had voted for the guy, it turned out that many liked his wife, Betty, better than him. Especially after he pardoned Nixon, and she came forward to the public about having breast cancer and troubles with alcohol. Consequently, when he ran for re-election, there were a bunch of pins about her as First Lady or saying, "Vote for Betty's Husband," not even mentioning even name. Some said "yes" to her but "no" to him, and there's even one at the bottom, here, saying SHE should be president! Plus, this lot has a couple that may be harder-to-find examples since one's from Hawaii and another from a Washington State Women's Caucus out of Seattle. These range in size from 3" to 1.25" for reference purposes. Some are lithos and some are cellos. This is a nice batch for a student, beginning collector, history buff or for a Christmas present. They are in nice condition, but please look at our images to judge this for yourself so you can be happy with your purchase. We are members of APIC and sell only authentic presidential (and other collectible) material so buy with confidence. We'll be happy to combine S & H costs on multiple purchases even though eBay says we don't. We just issue a refund for any overpayment.
