Item Description
1.75” without backpaper or maker’s name from the 1940s era picturing a generic cowboy on rearing horse. The same image was used for buttons featuring Gene Autry or Lone Ranger rodeo appearances during the same time period. We’ve seen one other example of this button which had suspended leather strap and holster bearing text “Roy Rogers Souvenir Championship Rodeo” along with a single shot miniature cast iron cap gun. This is one of only 3 buttons we’ve seen. A few hairline scratches in reflected light and a couple of pinpoint tan dots in the celluloid surface as made plus some tiny air dots under the celluloid on the image area but these just show a trifle. Button displays clean and Exc. Comes with Hake’s COA. Our example with the holster and gun reached $400.
