Item Description
Button is Hake #2033. 2" with somewhat aged St. Louis Button Co. back paper which has a few spots and about 15% of missing surface paper. Likewise the button has tiny tan age dots around much of the circumference but they do not go inward very far and vast majority is unstained and with high gloss. With the button comes a 5.5x8.5" folded brochure which opens to 17x22". Front cover names sponsor "Automobile Club/Missouri" with title "Official Souvenir Map And Program/Churchill Day/Fulton Missouri/March 5, 1946" plus photo of "Winston Churchill." Interior names various local committees who made the arrangements for the day and has a one page program listing order of events in which Truman and Churchill spoke prior to their receiving "Honorary Degrees Awards." When the brochure is open to its full size the interior shows map of the city with various notations including "Westminster College/Where Churchill Speaks." Covers are a little more tanned then the interior but still in Exc. condition. While the button is rare the program is even more so.
