DescriptionCampaign collar tag supporting Kennedy for president during the 1960 election. The word "KENNEDY" is printed in blue on a white background. The round tab reads "BASTIAN BROS. CO., ROCHESTER, N. Y." The tag is made of thin metal; the user would bend the tag so that the round tab would go inside a collar and the main label would show.
