Item Description
Each 1.75" and both with W&H papers although on the first a layer of surface paper removed most of the text. This one reads "Wichita's Street Fair & Carnival Oct. 16 to 21. 1899." Great design of men in jester outfits who have very elongated legs necessary to hold aloft a giant ear of corn between them. Some fading of the color but still a wonderful button and with high gloss. Next dated for 1898 has upper text "Fourth Annual Corn Carnival, Atchinson, Kansas." Three tiny dark age dots on the extreme upper edge but blending very well with the dark blue rim. All else is clean and glossy.
