THE ULTIMATE SNARK: TWO PINS, ONE EPIC FEUD.


Why settle for one side of history when you can have the whole argument? This listing features a perfect pairing from the infamous 1970 Alabama Gubernatorial Election—widely considered one of the most intense and "dirty" campaigns in American history.


The Rivalry:


Albert Brewer “Full Brewer Time” Pin: This was Brewer’s direct jab at George Wallace. The slogan was a "coded" attack, accusing Wallace of being a part-time governor who used Alabama as a stepping stone for his presidential runs. It’s the "moderate" choice from a pivotal moment in Southern history.


George Wallace “Our Kind of Man” Pin: The classic 1962/1970 era button representing the Wallace political machine.


Collector Specs (See Photos):

Both pins are authentic, campaign-issued relics with original markers:


Union Made: Both feature the #UnionBug (Allied Printing Trades Council seal) on the curls.


Verified Disclaimer: * The Brewer pin is stamped: "PD. POL. ADV. BY FRIENDS OF ALBERT P. BREWER CHR."


The Wallace pin is stamped: "PD. POL. ADV. BY FRIENDS OF WALLACE J. WALLACE CHM."


Condition:

Good Vintage Condition. These pins were actually handled and likely worn 50+ years ago. They show light surface wear and some age-related "foxing" (spots) on the edges and backs, which only adds to their authentic campaign-trail character. Pin mechanisms are fully functional.
