Lot #86:

Goldwasser for Fuhrer

This anti Barry Goldwater pin pulls no punches, comparing him to a certain German dictator. The chains on the black and white hands refer to Goldwater’s opposition to civil rights legislation. Ironically, Goldwater’s grandfather was a Polish Jew named Goldwasser who immigrated to the U.S. This 1 1/2 inch celluloid is in excellent condition.
