WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN MEDALS & BADGES

(1896)

 

    Democratic/People's (Populist) Party loser in 1896. 

    Popular candidate for collectors today.  Bryan items are generally scarcer and more desirable than their McKinley counterparts, although there are many rare and desirable McKinley items.  The absence of a catalog covering this campaign (the Sullivan medals book stops with the 1892 campaign) makes it more difficult (and perhaps interesting) to collect medals and badges from this campaign.  There is a separate page on this website for Bryan Money.

    A wide variety of  O'Hara Company porcelain studs were issued for this campaign -- all are desirable.
