EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of campaign buttons from the historic presidential race of 1940. The buttons represent the intense battle between Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the incumbent Democrat, and his Republican challenger Wendell Wilkie. These artifacts provide a fascinating glimpse into American political advertising during that era. The vibrant buttons, meticulously preserved in this photograph, serve as powerful symbols of democracy in action. Each button represents an advertisement for their respective candidate, highlighting their unique slogans and messages. This visual display captures the essence of election season - a time when citizens eagerly choose sides and proudly wear their preferred candidate's emblem. As we examine these campaign buttons from 1940, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in American history. Franklin Delano Roosevelt sought re-election amidst challenging times - mid-Depression and on the brink of World War II - while Wendell Wilkie aimed to unseat him with promises of change and progress. This print is not just an image; it is an artifact that embodies Americana at its core. It serves as both a souvenir from a bygone era and a reminder of our nation's enduring democratic traditions. Captured by The Granger Collection in New York City, this remarkable piece offers us an opportunity to reflect on past elections while appreciating how far our country has come since then.
