Item Description
Beautiful color semi-jungle setting with palm trees and scene depicting pair of outraged ostrich parents besetting a black man seated on the ground with three ostrich eggs between his legs. He uses a straw to drink the one he holds. Inscription reads “You Are The Sucker We’ve Been Laying For/Why Don’t You Get A Parsons Feeder.” Button has superb gloss and centering with three small brown marks showing very little. One is barely seen rim dot at 4 o’clock, second is 1/8” tan mark at bottom side edge also barely seen from the front view and the third is an 1/8” round mark around the word “Don’t”, just a hair darker tone than the surrounding color. This button is available only rarely with this being about our seventh in five decades. Auction sales have exceeded $700 for NM examples. We grade this example extremely fine. High gloss and perfect centering.
