- Item donor Susan H. Douglas dated these buttons to the 1904 Presidential campaign
however, the T.R. button is dated 1912. Button with portrait bust and eagle contains copyright statement by the Pach Brothers photography firm. Full-color button with label THEODORE ROOSEVELT was made using a four-color process, probably indicating it was made significantly later than the other buttons in this assemblage. - Cite As:
