Item Description
Big 2.25" button with an extra wide collet on the reverse and horizontal fixed bar pin all with the back paper of Keystone Badge, Reading at the center. Collet suspends lightly dust soiled 4.5" ribbon reading "Roosevelt/Information/Clerk." Tiny loss of some fringe mostly at left but with majority remaining. Celluloid has fairly numerous hairline scratches but they are not deep and they show only in reflected light. Button retains its full gloss and has no stain. An extremely rare photographic button and on a quick look through we do not see any items in the Hake Guides using this same photographic pose.
