Item Description
Rare and desirable 1.25" with curl naming Chicago button maker Parisian Novelty Co. This is a "Copyrighted" design as the tiny text on lower edge states. Four baseballs and two bats section off the photos (clockwise from top) of 1929 Chicago Cubs stars: Hack Wilson, Kiki Cuyler, Riggs Stephenson, and Rogers Hornsby. The button includes their first name or nickname (in the same order) of "Hack", "Kiki", "Stevie", "Rajah". The 1929 Chicago Cubs ball club finished in first place in the National League with a record of 98-54 under National Baseball Hall of Fame Manager Joe McCarthy. Leading the offense was a quartet of future Baseball Hall of Famers: Rogers Hornsby,  Gabby Hartnett, Hack Wilson and Kiki Cuyler. Chicago would go on to lose the World Series to the American League champion, Philadelphia Athletics in five games. Surface wear comes very close to 100% microscopic. High gloss. NM.
