Item Description
Only our third seen original card and complete set of 27 buttons, Washington through Wilson. Each is 1" w/backpaper reading "Your Credit Is Good At The New England." The company sold furniture and carpet and was located in Minneapolis, MN. The card was originally 10x12" but is missing a 2" wide piece across the center that read "In The Hope That The Effort Made In Assembling This Collection Of Presidents Buttons May Inspire Greater Love Of Country And Fuller Realization Of The Privileges And Responsibilities Of Citizenship, We Take Pleasure In Presenting The Same With Our Best Wishes..." The remaining card has numerous creases, minor dust soiling and about 10" of archival tape repairs to splits on the blank reverse. Benjamin Harrison button has .25" cello split on reverse, but the other buttons are NM-Mint. Our last example (w/complete card) exceeded $450.
