Theodore Roosevelt campaign item by C.H. Hanson Chicago

[jhenry]

Some kind of campaign medal?
"C.H. Hanson Chicago"
"For President Theodore Roosevelt"
Haven't been able to find any of these online. Anyone seen something like this?

just a guess, but may have been on leather as a key ring holder.

It's a watch fob. I found one that reads Roosevelt - Fairbanks- 1904. Mine is not the same shape but has the slot for a leather strap.
