Item Description
1" by Bastian for group organized Oct. 8, 1946 by Gloria Bartlett with an organizational goal to "Promote, by lawful means, any activity having for its object the bettering of conditions affecting the American home!" With the button comes a photocopy of a paper issued by this Glen Rock N.J. group the first sentence of which reads "I agree to cooperate whole heartily with our national government and refrain from scare buying for the duration of the Korean crisis or other Communistic disorders threatening peace." Photocopy has a small hole in the paper. The button itself has some tiny pinpoint raised bumps on the cello surface as made but is totally clean. Only example we've seen for this group.
