Compact NMAH-2004-5919

Blue compact that looks like telephone dial

Created in 1952 in support of the Presidential campaign Of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower , this oval lady’s compact is made in the shape of a telephone dial. On the dial appears “I LIKE IKE,” with a map of the United States in the center. The point is that anywhere you might dial over the country, everybody likes Ike! (Gift of Ralph E. Becker)
