Item Description
1.75" without back paper. Slightly heavier than normal thin surface oxidation on the metal reverse but it causes no problems and the button is stain free. Depicted is a Shriner wearing a fez and with his coat tails flying in the wind as he holds a baton and reins guiding a giant locust towards his destination. Rim text is "Flight Of Locusts To Kansas City 1901 From Great American Desert." Celluloid has high gloss and the button is NM displaying Mint. One of three we've seen in our 49 years. Rare.
