Item Description
Smaller buttons are 13/16" litho with reverse text "Post's Grape-Nut Flakes" along with a 1953 "RR" copyright. Some of these designs are identical to the set issued in the USA (see next item). Many others are unique designs used only in this Canadian set. Promotions for this set refer to an "Extra Large" button and that is here as a 1-1/8" litho which reads "Roy Rogers King Of The Cowboys" making a set of 16 as offered. This group also includes "Dale Evans/Queen Of The West" as a matching 1-1/8" litho although promotions do not refer to this button. Among the 15 smaller buttons the three missing show Roy from the waist up, Trigger and one titled "Roy Rogers Saddle." Those included feature Bullet, Buttermilk, Dale Evans, Pat Brady, Roy Rogers, and others displaying Dale's brand, Nellybelle, one for Deputy Sheriff and one for Sheriff, Roy's brand and the gateway to "Roy's Ranch." These Canadian buttons are particularly scarce and these are all Exc. to Mint. The large Roy button has a little edge wear but minor. The Dale button is NM.
