That's the Ticket! A Parade of Presidential Elections September 3, 2008

In honor of this year's presidential election season, the museum presents this exhibition chronicling the highlights of past races for the White House, from 1856 (the first contest between the Republican and Democratic parties) through 2004. Included are more than 400 artifacts and photographs from the rich collections of the Wisconsin Historical Society -- political campaign buttons, ribbons, bumper stickers, handbills, broadsides, tickets, pennants, clothing, novelties and more.
