Item Description
Stunning 1.25" beauty of young boy and girl huddling together in their wagon with text on the side rail "Sherwood Spring Coaster" with company name repeating along the bottom edge. There is a little more margin under the word "Spring" than under the word "Coaster" but o/w the only actual age is a very faint 1/32" dot on the top rim edge at one o'clock. On the reverse, under close inspection, there is a little browning around some areas of the metal collet but it is barely visible without magnification. Button is complete with its unique backpaper reading "The Sherwood Spring Coaster/Mfg.'d By Sherwood Bros./Mfg. Co. Inc./Canastota, N.Y." Among the best and rarest ad buttons ever. Displays N. Mint. Comes with Hake's COA. Also see toy related Flexible Flyer sled button #997 and Irish Mail wagon button #998.
