Item Description
1.25" with W&H back paper. Button is c. 1918-1919. The upper half of the extreme rim edge has some very tiny traces of brown stain but showing just as a couple 1/16" slivers along the edges. Santa's red coat has probably faded about 10%. This scarce button is normally seen with imprint of Philadelphia store Strawbridge & Clothier. We believe this is the first we've offered this button with the imprint "Toy Town Grand Leader." Rare. Fine.
