Historical Notes
Jugate – this term is used to describe any campaign item where two candidates are pictured; generally the president and vice-president. This term may also be used for an item where a governor and lieutenant governor are pictured. Jugate images are found most commonly on pinback buttons, but they may also be found on poster, pennants, postcards, textiles, and many other forms of political campaign items. Many collectors have a stronger interest in jugates simply because it shows an image of both candidates, rather than a single picture or no picture at all.
