1912 Teddy Roosevelt Johnson Jugate Progressive Bull Moose Donation Certificate

Description: This is for the political collector who wants a nice Theodore Roosevelt Hiram Johnson jugate, but who can't (or won't) pay $1000+ for a button or a poster. Shortly after he won the 1904 presidential election, TR said that he wouldn't run again; words that he wished he could have taken back the moment they left his mouth. He had no idea that in four years he would remain so immensely popular. But, true to his word, in 1908 he promoted his chosen successor, William Howard Taft and, after that victory, promptly left the U.S. for his extensive African trip. When he came back triumphantly in 1910, he realized Taft wasn't towing the Roosevelt line and by 1912, after he had won a bunch of GOP primaries, but the Republican National Convention still gave the nomination to Taft, TR bolted his life-long party, formed the Progressive or "Bull Moose" party, and challenged both Taft and the democrat nominee Woodrow Wilson in the fall. So, just like Ross Perot did when he ran in 1992 against George Bush 41, (giving the election to the democrat Bill Clinton with a total vote of only in the low 40's percentiles), TR likewise gave the 1912 election to Wilson with only 42% of the vote. His personal satisfaction was that he came in second, but many republicans never forgave him. And how embarrassing for poor Taft. If you gave a buck to TR's campaign, you got this 3.25 " x 6.75" paper certificate, (as nicely printed as any bank note), by which to remember your favorite candidates, Theodore Roosevelt and Hiram Johnson. The detail, design and engraving on this is certainly worth every penny - it's gorgeous. You'll be proud to own it. There's even a proud bull moose on the back. This is in nice condition, but please look at our images to judge this for yourself so you can be happy with your purchase. Remember, folks, this stuff's called ephemera because it was made to be used and then pitched. Imagine how many of these got tossed right after the election. Now adays, we're just glad someone did stow it away - in any condition - just so we can add it to our collection. 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 which we do by issuing a refund for any overpayment. Shipping on this will be $5.85, carefully packed with tracking. 9395
