Item Description
1.25" plus brass rope frame held on by four reverse tabs. Hake #269. If the brass rim is removed, revealed is a .5" hairline split in the celluloid at the very top. With the rim in place the only thing showing is a near pinpoint mark above the comma between "Fair" and "St." Background of the button has taken on a light tan color but there is no actual spotting. Likely there was a back paper but now missing. A rare issue in still quite presentable condition.
