Item Description
Each 1.25" and both with a W&H paper. The first paper also includes the text "Official Souvenir Sacramento April 30 to May 5, 1900" along with a penciled name of the original owner. Button is in gorgeous color with a white face clown surrounded by a burst design with slogan below "A Week Of Unalloyed Joy". Second button is from 1901 showing a jester in elaborate outfit and cape playing a stringed instrument beneath the title "Fun And Mirth For All." Both celluloids are essentially Mint. Buttons this early from Nevada are particularly rare.
