1904 THEODORE ROOSEVELT CAMPAIGN Roosevelt, who ascended to the presidency following the 1901 assassination of William McKinley, won the Republican nomination to run against Democratic nominee Alton B. Parker in 1904. Roosevelt secured a full term of his own with 56% of the vote. Following a promise he made not to seek a third term, he declined to run in 1908. He regretted the decision and ran again in 1912, losing to Woodrow Wilson.
The 1904 campaign button offered here is an example of the highly desirable 1.25\" version and is in excellent vintage condition. Housed in a 2x2 coin flip, its celluloid image remains crisp, sharp, and near perfect. The back features tarnish commiserate with metal pins of this age.
