Item Description
1.25" with small text naming maker W&H on the backpaper along with larger text "Try On Time Starch, Soda And Yeast." Button shows Uncle Sam seated in a chair raising a paddle labeled "U.S." with a large pointed nail extending through the wood. He has already applied this weapon to the rear end of a Spaniard lying across his lap. The result is five bloody holes in the Spaniard's rear end above a tiny caption on his leg "S-Pain." Representing the word "Spain." Slightest bit of light tan tone over the cream background with a single virtual pinpoint cello nick on the upper right edge but barely showing. Still wonderful color and full gloss. Like #864, one of the scarcer in the series.
