James Garfield is one of the true tragic stories of American history. An American success story who rose from poverty to the presidency, he served only a few months before being shot by an assassin. This beautiful brass shell campaign item from 1880 places Garfield’s picture in an ornate, patriotic design. This item is listed in Hake as #3032, has a very different image of Garfield. No pin but otherwise excellent on this rare 1 1/4 inch item.
