Gerald Ford and Bob Michel pose together on this very scarce Ford political pin. Ford and Michel, a congressman from Illinois, were long-time pals in the House of Representatives. Michel was minority whip from 1975-1981, which included Ford’s time in the White House, and minority leader from 1981-1995. Michel served in the House 38 years and Ford served in the House 24 years, so there are a lot of years of experience on this pin. It’s a 2 1/4 inch celluloid, excellent condition.
