Item Description
Among the best 1896 jugate designs, this beautiful 1.25" was issued for "National Wheelmens Club" and features a bicycle wheel design of red spokes behind the portraits of "McKinley And Hobart." The celluloid covering on this button was very susceptible to yellowing and cracking. However, this example has only the most trivial wear under magnification and is in superb N. Mint condition.
