<B>John W. Davis: The Legendary Clarksburg, West Virginia Button Variety.</B></I> Among presidential candidates for whom pinbacks were issued, Davis is by far the toughest candidate, and this large 2 1/8" variety is considered one of the best. The present example has an excellent appearance, but a brass rope frame has been added to cover fairly light rim staining which extends most of the way around the button's circumference. With the addition of the brass rim, only a few hints of the foxing are visible in a couple of places. Please see our website for an image of the button without its brass frame. While it is relatively presentable for display even without the frame, we suspect the next owner will prefer to keep it.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Smal (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
