Item Description
1.5" button with near exact likeness of Alfred E. Newman as depicted for MAD Magazine. The only other text on the button is "Superior - 1941," although we don't know the meaning of this inscription. Button has no backpaper as issued and no maker's name. One of only 3 examples we've encountered in 43 years. Exceedingly minor surface wear under magnification. Button is Exc. and displays Mint. Comes with Hake's COA. Also see previous item and Comfort Soap button #470. Our last example of this button exceeded $600.
