Item Description
Massive 4" celluloid with safety pin of the era soldered on the reverse. Small back stamp by W&H. Front shows those playful Shriners, one whacking the other with a broom as that one rings a gong. Surface has scattered very tiny raised cello bumps but displays totally clean. Buttons this large from this era and earlier are all quite scarce and this is an excellent example of a fraternal button with cartoon theme. Rare and displays Mint. See Shrine items 691 and 651.
