Item Description
Collectible Pin-Back Buttons Hake book photo example entertainment section #1020. Only example we know of for this large 1.75" real photo button of "Millie De Leon - The Girl In Blue - Queen Of All Dancers." This beautiful turn-of-the-century star was famous for tossing her garter and occasionally forgetting to wear her tights. About 12 light tan dots (only one on her at shoulder) caused in development of the photographic paper. No maker. Trivial rust on metal-covered reverse and bar pin. Rare.
