Button, Political

One flasher-type political button from the Dwight D. Eisenhower presidential campaign. The circular button has a clear plastic front that shows a black and white, head and shoulders image of Dwight D. Eisenhower and black text that reads "I like Ike." The photo and text images alternate back and forth depending upon the angle at which the button is viewed. The plastic flasher is mounted on a thin steel backing plate that is painted blue. White printed text on the back of the button reads "Manufactured by Pictorial Productions, Tuckahoe, New York," and shows a small union label. A steel clasp pin is also attached to the back of the button.
