Item Description
1.75" without back paper but known to be by W&H as within modern memory we've offered three in the 1.25" size and two of those had W&H papers. This is certainly the only 1.75" size we've offered. Indian maid with three feathers in her hair flies across the sky and carries the "I Do" flowing pennant while below is the Seattle waterfront with ships, docks, warehouses and cityscape stretching towards Mt. Ranier in the distance. Scattered tiny marks in reflected light, the worst is a 1/16" deeper than usual scratch on center right building. Exc. This is the button photographed for page 83 of the book Button Power by Carter/Hake. Comes w/Hake's COA.
