Item Description
3" button with glued on 2.25 x 5" ribbon which has a crescent shaped left edge stain. The ribbon names "The Swingin' Party" and was likely issued as promotion for some 1950s joint record album release. Cello has five light, white hairline scratches below "President" with remaining cello glossy and NM. Original seller stated this button came from the estate of Keely Smith who died 12/16/2017 in Palm Springs at age 89. The couple was married 1953-61 and in 1961 performed "That Old Black Magic" at JFK's inaugural ball. One known to us. Rare.
