Item Description
1.75" to 3.5". Two of the buttons feature a portrait of Brown w/his iconic "I'm Black And I'm Proud" quote. The third button has a stylized silhouette of Brown and reads "Don't Be A Dropout". Largest pin has cello separations along the back curl from 11 to 4 o'clock w/a small crack at 1 o'clock. Otherwise moderate wear and a few tiny scattered spots. Technically VG, but displays above grade. Smallest pin has only minor wear and is NM. The "James Brown Fan Club" pin has light scattered wear and a production flaw on the reverse in which the cello covering extended further onto the metal back of the button. This does not affect display and pin is still Exc. as made. A nice trio buttons of the musician and civil rights activist.
