Item Description
Although tanned overall button depicts gorgeous color scene of young boy bursting through a paper target and proudly holding his Daisy rifle. The rifle carries the word "Daisy" in tiny text on its side. Below the scene is the word "Trade Mark" and lower rim reads "Daisy M'F'G. Co." On extreme lower edge, mostly on the curl is "Plymouth, Mich. U.S.A." Light age over the W&H paper. Button retains full gloss and has almost no surface wear. Given this back paper we know of no other earlier advertising button for this company. Rare.
