John W. Davis and Augustus Owsley Stanley had to do a lot of work to do to win in 1924. This 7/8 inch celluloid is a Kentucky coattail pin picturing Davis with Stanley, who was a candidate for the Senate in 1924. Stanley had been a congressman, governor and senator before losing in 1924. An interesting side note: his grandson, Augustus Owsley Stanley III, was a legendary LSD chemist and companion of the Grateful Dead during the 1960s. Excellent condition.
