Item Description
Like our previous jungle-themed club members button this also features a ferocious beast, namely a snarling lion flanked by what seems to be four palm fronds. Much of the button is covered in tan stain although the tiny individual dot near the bottom proved to surface dirt now removed. While 85% of the button has this dark color the button still retains its full gloss and the reverse is no more oxidized than the average button. We believe this button relates to a single-season Screen Gems syndicated television series with 26 episodes running 1955-1956 starring Weissmuller. It is the only example we have seen.
