DescriptionA round pinback button from Franklin Roosevelt's campaign. On a white background, with small horizontal red stripes at the top and bottom, is blue text that reads: AMERICA / CALLS ANOTHER / ROOSEVELT / FRANKLIN D. / "NO RESERVATIONS". The manufacturer's tag is on the reverse: LOPEZ 3 School Street, Boston.
Label TextThis button was created in 1931 by the National Franklin D. Roosevelt League for President. One of the first campaign buttons used to boost FDR as a presidential candidate, it reminded voters of FDR’s family connection to Theodore Roosevelt, who served as America’s 26th president. The button is on display in the 1932 ELECTION CAMPAIGN exhibit in the Museum’s THE PROMISE OF CHANGE gallery.
