McKinley Factory Pin

Do You Smoke? Yes, since 1896. Factories belching smoke and dinner pails were a sign of prosperity in 1900, which explains why they are pictured on this classic William McKinley campaign pin. It's a 2 ¼-inch celluloid with a few tiny surface bumps you can notice when you run your finger across the surface of the pin.
