William Jennings Bryan-Kern Celluloid Button
Item #: NEW-0016417

Click image to enlarge
This is a poor specimen of a very rare button which sells for $1,000 and more.  I feel it would still augment a Bryan display or at least hold a place when a better example might be found.  A high resolution scan can be sent to anyone interested so it could be better viewed.  There is celluloid crazing primarily on the left hand side but there are some other smaller areas.

Brass Pin-Taft or Teddy Roosevelt-Ribbon
Item #: NEW-0016342

Click image to enlarge
I've had this for many years and have given up trying to figure out whether it is a Teddy Roosevelt or William Taft.  It measures two inches and is affixed in some way to a large white silk ribbon.  The figure in standing in a chair and there are two letters P and C.  A Facebook friend suggested it might stand for Presidential chair which is possible.  This item was purchased along with ribbons related to the visit of President Taft to New Orleans and other items as well including some Teddy Roosevelt buttons.  I have waited over the years to see another but since I haven't I must conclude that it is an unlisted, unknown campaign item.  The figure is hefty so it could be Teddy Roosevelt or William Taft.  The eyes are so big that they look like glasses to me so I lean on the Teddy Roosevelt identification.

Teddy Roosevelt Visits Peabody-Nashville-Photo
Item #: NEW-0016341

Click image to enlarge
This is a rare photograph which shows President Roosevelt visiting what used to be the Western Military Institute in Nashville Tennessee.  There is a rare postcard that was made from this photograph which says that he is visiting Peabody College.  At any rate the building is still there.  It was made by Thuss, a famous Nashville photographer.  The photo itself measures 10 and a half by 8 and a half inches but is mounted on a board which measures about 15 by 12 inches.  A thin paper frame has been mounted to the board.  There is some light staining in the upper right sky area and a vertical line that runs down the left side of the photo but you can't see it unless you rotate it under a light.  There is also a light line that criss crosses it but again you only can see it when rotating the photo.  Other light staining which is barely noticeable.

Ribbon-Macon-UCV- William McKinley
Item #: NEW-0016098

Click image to enlarge
Here is some information on this rare ribbon that I found on-line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confederate_Survivors_Association
"In December 1898 after the Spanish–American War, President William McKinley toured the South by train to celebrate the victory over Spain and to thank the citizens for their support of the war effort. During a whistle stop in Macon, Georgia, the 400 members of the Bibb County CSA camp warmly greeted the President, and one veteran presented him with a Confederate badge. McKinley may have been the first U.S. President to wear such an emblem in public."

The ribbon measures 9 inches long.  It was scanned in a mylar holder, it has not been laminated.  There is a two inch separation on the ribbon which runs from the beginning of the written material to the bottom of the ribbon on the right hand side.  It has been mended on the back with an archival acid free tape.

Teddy Roosevelt Glass Pen
Item #: NEW-008916

Click image to enlarge
I had to buy this unusual item which is hard to show in a scan as it kept rolling the wrong way. It measures six and a half inches. There is a paper insert inside which has rolled in a little as you cannot see the ending of Roosevelt's name. It is entirely closed so was put in the tube somehow. There is some ink residue on the tip so it was actually used as a pen. I believe rolled out would show that it was an American flag. You can see the stars but the blue field has faded. In the middle you can read Americ but not the a.
