Coloradans for Goldwater

Barry Goldwater was from Arizona, right next door to Colorado. This scarce celluloid pin was made for Coloradans who wanted to see their neighbor elected as president. It’s a 1 3/4 inch celluloid made in Denver. Maybe they should have made a few more of these pins back in 1964: Goldwater managed to get only 38 percent of the vote in Colorado that year. A super Barry item in excellent condition.
