Item Description
1.25" button complete with W&H backpaper reads "Utah Pioneer Jubilee July 24, 1897." Button has relatively minor rim stain with extremely faint tan on edge from 1-3 o'clock, a little darker tan tone from 5-6 o'clock and a little browning visible at 9 o'clock. Intensity of the blue and red colors are just a hair faded but still very strong. Hake book Collectible Pin-Back Buttons photo example Religion section #89. Comes with Hake's COA. The only example we've seen in 43 years and button came from the Joe Stone Collection which was largely the basis for Collectible Pin-Back Buttons. Fine and still with nice gloss.
