Item Description
Beautiful 1.25" with quoted text appearing on the side of the vehicle. Only button we know to show the term "Horseless Carriage." Complete with backpaper which for some reason is often missing. This has a Montgomery Ward guarantee that includes "Your Money Refunded If Goods Are Not As Represented." Bottom curl has name of maker W&H along with an 1896 patent date. A superior example displaying Mint and rarely found as such.
