Item Description
The first button is with Bastian paper and 13/16" in superb color picturing child movie star with text "I'll Say These Are Great Caps/Wesley Barry." On the next button "Junior" wears a hat of much the same style as he poses with "Dick Tracy." This is the first depiction of Junior on a button and is c.1933. Curl carries name of maker Parisian. Very light surface wear with a few short hairline scratches showing only in reflected light. Button displays Mint and is one of only ten or so we've seen over five decades. The Barry button is Mint.
