Item Description
2-1/8" which we believe relates to the famous Ford Rotunda building, originally built as exhibit for 1933 Chicago World's Fair. At the fair's close the building went to Dearborn and was positioned across from the company's world headquarters. The building was used for automotive exhibits with tours by the public and local school children plus Santa made an appearance each Christmas season. The building was destroyed by fire while roof repairs were being made in 1962. We believe the button is c. 1950, give or take, and is NM displaying Mint. Morry Greener Collection.
