Item Description
7/8" with tiny copyright symbol below the image of Mickey. This is the very first Mickey image to appear on a movie theater club button. The very first club opened 1/11/1930 at Fox Dome Theatre in Ocean Park, Calif. While this is not from that theater, it is from one in the chain and carries the inscription "Fox Hollywood Theatre." Celluloid surface is just a hair concave with the slightest trace of wear in reflected light but all displays bright and clean. VF, displaying Mint. See following two related items as well as item #1014 which carries the same name as this button. Rare.
