Item Description
1.25" unlisted in Hake. No backpaper likely as issued and no maker's name. Reverse has tiny 1/16" cello split barely showing. Front has quite unusual smiling illustration of FDR surrounded by full text "The President's Birthday Ball/Lafayette Hotel, Clinton, Ia./Georgia Warm Springs Foundation/Jan. 30, 1934." Pair of near pinpoint surface wear marks on right bkg. show only a trifle even in reflected light. Button is Exc. and displays glossy/Mint. First we've seen.
