I collect political items, but my collection has very few rare buttons. Here's one I'd love to find. It is beautiful and huge (9 inch diameter) AND has Rome's own Ellen Axson Wilson on it. And the three Wilson daughters. Some Roman with some pockets deeper than mine should buy it for our history center. It's for sale tonight on Facebook (Political Memorabilia Exchange) for a mere $840.
I keep an audiobook in my car cd player and my current book is a biography of Wilson. Fascinating, brilliant, and contradictory man.
Later note: Well, the button sold at that price.
