Pinback button opposing William Jennings Bryan for president, 1900.
Pictures Bryan, Richard Croaker, and Emilio Aguinaldo, likening Bryan to the Tammany boss and the Philippine revolutionary.
An outspoken critic of the administration's expanionist foreign policy, Bryan made anti-imperialism the central theme of his campaign to unseat William McKinley in 1900. At the time, the United States was engaged in suppressing a native independence movement on the Philippine Islands, recently acquired from Spain.
Pristine example of a rare photographic design that typically has condition problems, when found. We know of just two other examples on the market in the last 10 years; one was badly foxed, the other off-center. The maker is unknown, but clearly they had a serious vendetta against Bryan!
