Item Description
First is 1" from early 1900s. Has a back paper but insects removed most of the type. The celluloid is NM and displays Mint. Second is a rare 1.25" reading "Velie/The Car For Me." No paper probably as issued. Tan stain around the reverse collet and a small bit of this shows on the extreme right edge plus a tiny sliver at 1 o'clock. Button surface is very slightly uneven. Still with nice gloss and a rare button. Last is 1-1/8" litho by Parisian. Reads "100,000 Mile Or 3 Year Guarantee/The Lowest Price Full Service Car In The World/Willy." Only a couple of pinpoints of paint wear. An exceptionally nice and glossy example.
