Item Description
5/8" highly-domed button reads "Share Our Wealth Society/Every Man A King." Reverse paper with bold text "Write/Huey P. Long/U.S. Senator/Wash. D.C." As issued, to make the paper fit in the button back, the "H" of his name and the "U" of "U.S." were cut off. Only the second example we've seen with the backpaper present. See next following item which likely held these buttons. Button is essentially Mint.
