William Taft, US President 1909 to 1913
To be honest, I found it in '96 when we moved in. I keep it down in the room with the dahlia roots, gladiola corms, spuds . . .
I'm afraid if I move it, I'll lose it . I asked a local antique guy about it and he said that these campaign pins are commonly counterfeited but the fact that it isn't in the most pristine shape and missing its ribbon suggests that it is the real thing. Taft ran for president 8 years after this house was built.
