Item Description
Large and beautifully designed 2.5" button c. 1930s. Shows driver in speeding race car accented by checkered flags and additional text "For Hoosier Hospitality." In reflected light a couple longer and a couple of shorter hairline scratches show and on the grille of the racer is a tiny 1/16" cello cut. While these things show in reflected light, under normal viewing about the only thing that can be picked up is a pinpoint dot on the yellow bkg. above the car's right wheel. Still displays totally clean and glossy with intense color. Covered tin back with stamp of maker W&H. Only about the 4th or 5th we've seen.
