The picture below shows a larger view of this Colorful 1964 Esso Gas Station Advertising Lithographed Tin Tab Button. The tab button is imprinted in red and blue on a white background. It has a slogan that reads as follows:

CHICKEN IN EVERY POT
TIGER IN EVERY TANK

“'CHICKEN IN EVERY POT' is a quotation that is perhaps one of the most misassigned in American political history. Variously attributed to each of four presidents serving between 1920 and 1936, it is most often associated with Herbert Hoover. In fact, the phrase has its origins in seventeenth century France; Henry IV reputedly wished that each of his peasants would enjoy 'a chicken in his pot every Sunday'. Although Hoover never uttered the phrase, the Republican Party did use it in a 1928 campaign advertisement touting a period of 'Republican prosperity' that had provided a 'chicken in every pot. And a car in every backyard, to boot'.

The tin tab button measures about 1-1/2'' x 2-5/16''. It appears to be in excellent condition as pictured. The tab has a slight bend. On the back is the remains of a price sticker that could probably be removed with care.
