Description
For President - Convict No. 9653.
Eugene V. Debs: Classic 1920 "Convict Button." Jailed for his political activities, the five-time Socialist presidential candidate conducted his last campaign from his prison cell, and capitalized on his situation in several varieties of endearing button designs. This 1" version comes in two variants; this is by far the scarcer, with a much smaller Debs portrait. Debs is unquestionably the most popular and collectable of third-party candidates among hobbyists, and all of his items range from scarce to rare. This one is an excellent shape and a great representative Debs item.Auction Info
