Item Description
Each is 7/8". First is choice color picturing large factory building of "Hagerstown Brewing Co." Reverse has W&H back paper c. 1900 with additional text "Drink Special Brew/'Imperial' Francis Kiner." Next shows distinguished gentlemen holding up a glass of bourbon surrounded by text "Old Judge Kentucky Bourbon." Outer edge of lower half has a few tiny indents with a near pinpoint speck of cello missing at 7 o'clock. Still displays extremely well and with nice color. The back of the piece has a collet designed to hold a wire allowing the piece to be used as a money clip but the original wire is gone and instead a standard spring pin is in its place. Both from Collectible Pin-Back Buttons color plate pages 150-151. Comes with Hake's COA.
