Item Description
Gerald Ford was the 38th President of the United States, taking office in August of 1974 upon the resignation of President Richard Nixon following the Watergate scandal. He was the first unelected President in US history. Less than a year prior to becoming President, Ford was appointed Vice President in Richard Nixon's second term. He had been a longtime congressman from Michigan.
Ford is credited with helping to restore public confidence after the disillusionment of the Watergate era.
In 1976 he campaigned for President and won the Republican nomination for President, but was defeated by Jimmy Carter in the General Election.
These 14 buttons are from Gil Gleason's collection. The center button is a "flasher" with both the faces of Gerald Ford and Robert Dole, Ford's running mate.
