Item Description
This large 1.75" button has Western Badge, St. Paul back paper, although missing is the flag ribbon and hanger bar it was suspended from. Only the slightest hairline of fabric shows on the the reverse collet at top. The button now contains a standard brass spring pin. One of the most graphic of the Lindbergh 1927 tour of the USA buttons and especially important because as the button text says this was Lindy's home state reading "Welcome Colonel Charles Lindbergh/Minnesota's Own". About four tiny very faint gray marks on the cream background. Full gloss. VF. Scarce.
