Item Description
Sizes are 7/16" to 1.5". For Chicago we have five celluloid buttons, 17 litho tin buttons, a Mr. Peanut tab with unbent stem, and an aluminum "Union Pacific" token. Among the scarcer and interesting buttons are two from 1934. The first names "Enchanted Island" which was a children's entertainment area that included both Buck Rogers and Wizard Of Oz exhibits. The second item with this date reads "See Midget City." There are also two buttons for "Lucky Teter/Worlds Champion Daredevil." Four buttons name specific states: Kentucky, Michigan, New York, Virginia. First and last have some wear but these are the most worn items in the group which overall displays bright and clean. The item pair for the "Great Lakes Exposition" include a button and a rolled penny showing the "Fair Entrance." Majority of the items are Exc. to NM.
