This is an original vintage political campaign pinback button for Tom Curtis, likely from his mid-century congressional runs representing Missouri. Tom Curtis was a prominent Republican who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1951 to 1969.
Thomas B. Curtis was a significant figure in Missouri politics, known for his long tenure in Congress and his later role as the first chairman of the Federal Election Commission. This button is a classic piece of Americana and a great addition for collectors of Republican Party history or Missouri-specific political artifacts.
Style and Composition: The pin is a large-format litho button. It features a deep blue background with "TOM CURTIS" printed in bold white block lettering. The construction consists of a printed metal face wrapped over a metal shell. The reverse side features a standard horizontal pin-back assembly and includes a visible union label or "bug" stamped into the metal, which was a common requirement for campaign materials of this era to show support for organized labor.
This is a large button with a diameter of 3 inches.
Condition: This pin is in good vintage condition. The blue color is still deep and the white lettering remains crisp. The front shows some very light scuffing and minor surface wear as expected with an item of this age. The reverse side shows a natural aged patina and some oxidation typical for mid-century metal buttons. The pin mechanism is intact and functional.
