Item Description
1.25” without backpaper or maker’s name. Metal back has a little heavier than normal brown oxidation and there are very narrow traces of edge stain on the front at top and bottom but overall front appearance remains about 90% clean. This rare button is from the 1935 serial which provided Autry with his first starring role. Text reads “Thunder Riders Club” and portrays 8 lightning bolts surrounding head of a man wearing a mask and an electrified device on his head. Button retains full color and glossy. We don’t recall ever offering this button before or if we did it was sometime prior to Auction #150. Among the very rarest movie serial buttons. Comes with Hake’s COA.
