Mid-20th-century political campaign ephemera consisting of a dyed red feather printed in yellow and red with the slogan “KEEP INDIANA DEMOCRATIC.” Distributed during Democratic state or national campaigns, this type of feather badge was intended for wear in lapels or hats. The use of red feathers as political giveaways was popular from the 1930s through the 1950s and often coordinated with regional party messaging.

This example likely dates from a gubernatorial or presidential election year when Indiana was seen as electorally pivotal, and Democrats sought to counter growing Republican influence in the Midwest. These feather slogans were inexpensive to produce and easily distributed at rallies or by mail, often included in envelopes with campaign literature.
