Item Description
First in the group is 7/8" naming vaudeville performers and with text on the Kid's shirt "Say Wate For Me/I'm Wid Gilmore & Leonard In Hogan's Alley See ?" Reverse has 1/8" hairline of missing cello, extremely minor. Front is essentially Mint. Next is 7/8" with rim text "There Is Only One Yellow Kid/Big Bubble Chewing Gum." This product outlived the newspaper strip and lasted into the 1920s with curl naming maker Bastian. Last are the buttons numbered 1-7 each 1.25" and with each naming on the front or back "High Admiral Cigarettes." Button #2 has scattered tan age marks, button #3 has fairly heavy scratching over the top of the barrel and the kid's head and button #7 has a 1" long cello split on the back creating a small hairline gap along the collet but still displaying cleanly from the front. Buttons 1, 4, 5, and 6 are Exc. to Mint.
