Item Description
2-1/8" real photo, no backpaper if it had one. Button is c. 1930. This bow-tied, smiling man perhaps took his nickname from eccentric, hard drinking baseball player Arthur 'Bugs' Raymond (1882-1912) known for his crazy antics. In any case, we've always enjoyed his supremely confident motto. Only one seen. Hake book Collectible Pin-Back Buttons photo example Famous People section #100. Comes with Hake's COA. Exc. and displays Mint.
