Item Description
Sizes are 1.75" for the smallest, 3" for the largest and the eight similar are each 2.25". The buttons in rows 2-4 are all from page 212 with Muchinsky book numbers 57-65. The group begins with a Muchinsky button that was not in his book. This reads "The Wild Bunch/Bernie's Across From Wrigley Field Chicago." Muchinsky's book note explains that some member of the media referred to the ardent fans as a "Wild Bunch" and the name took hold. The group apparently formed in 1981 as the 1991 button in this group refers to the "10th Anniversary." Last button in the group pictures a goat with slogan "Reverse The Curse 2004." Button back has a small sticker with extensive text about the history of the "Curse" and instructions to wear this button "On The 2004 Season Start". NM to Mint.
