Item Description
2.25" litho tin button but done in two pieces with a litho tin front and metal reverse with a bar pin. The button promotes "Lithello" an advance which the company promoted as a new "Celluloid Like Process" being marketed in the early 1970s. Given the slogan "Say Hey, Say Aloha, Say Lithello", it seems this is a marketing promotional button for the new process. One other opinion we've heard is that this could be related to a golf tournament that Mays participated in in Hawaii. NM and displays Mint.
