Item Description
4" w/concave metal back and horizontal bar pin. This was produced as a manufacturer sample when Bastian Bros. attempted to colorize their line. The image of the Kennedy family was hand trimmed and set against the striking light blue background by a designer in the legendary button producers workshop. Light wear on metal reverse. NM. An important and rare sample button that is among few to feature the first family. This impressive JFK artifact is the first we've offered and only the second known to us. A stand out even in the most advanced collections.
