Item Description
2.25". 1948. Midwest Badge on curl. This pin was made for a marketing sample card sent out by Midwest Badge Co. to drum up business. It's likely no quantities were ever ordered as only a few have surfaced in the hobby. To our count less than 5 are known. Trace of surface wear seen under magnification. Glossy NM displaying Mint. Among the best Dewey buttons in the hobby. A special opportunity. Rare.
