Item Description
7/8” and the only celluloid example we’ve seen of this button. We have had a tin litho version several times and know from other documentation that the button was issued by Canvas Products Company who in 1935 offered five of the buttons to the purchaser of a Tom Mix endorsed tent. Curl of the celluloid reads “Geraghty & Co., Chicago.” Button also has a union bug back stamp. NM and displaying Mint. Rare.
