Let’s Back Ike Re-Elect Westland Washington Coattail

A scarce coattail pin from the state of Washington. This 1 inch Dwight Eisenhower celluloid also backs congressman Jack Westland, who served in the House of Representatives from 1953-1965. Westland, like Ike, was an avid golfer. He played on three Walker Cup teams and won the French and U.S. Amateurs. Excellent.
