DescriptionThis campaign button was made for JoAnn Eastham's 1977 campaign for mayor of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Although Eastham lost the election to David Rusk, her campaign was significant as there were very few women running for such high positions at the time. The button is mostly white with light blue lettering. The text reads "JoAnn/EASTHAM/FOR/MAYOR."
