Buttons - Presidential Campaign - 1968

Nixon's The One!

OK, this isn't really a button, it is more of a badge thing you clipped over your shirt pocket. As I recall I found this on the ground somewhere in Olympia during the '68 campaign, so apparently this sort of "pin" didn't work all that well. The flip side says "ABCraft Mfg. Co. Chicago."

Those of us who felt Nixon was behind the Watergate break-in used this slogan a few years later when discussion turned to who was responsible for the crime.
