Description
Today, we will start featuring a collection of political Americana purchased from an old-time collector. Pieces were chosen for a combination of scarcity and condition, with an emphasis on the latter. Most of the collection was comprised of celluloid pinback buttons, but there are some GREAT earlier pre-1896 pieces, as well. Some standard abbreviations used include: cello = celluloid pinback button, litho = lithograph pinback button, ferro = ferrotype. All items’ sizes are denoted, as well as condition. We can not stress how rare it is for us to buy to a high-quality collection of this scope and magnitude. This specific item is a 1956 EISENHOWER-NIXON NEW JERSEY EMBROIDERED RIBBON, 2″ X 6″ W/ BUTTON ATTACHED, MINT. THIS IS A REALLY UNUSUAL ITEM, AND THE FIRST THAT WE HAVE SEEN. THE BUTTON IS A COMMON NEW JERSEY 1″ IKE LITHO, BUT THE HAWTHORNE UNIT OF PASSAIC COUNTY RIBBON THAT IT’S ATTCHED TO, IS ANYTHING BUT! THE RIBBON MEASURES 2 1/3″ WIDE BY 6 1/4″ LONG. IT IS EMBROIDERED WITH A LIKENESS OF EISENHOWER WITH THE YEAR 1956. WHAT MAKES THIS SCARCE ITEM EVEN BETTER, IS THAT IT’S MINT (JUST LIKE THE DAY THAT IT WAS MADE)! Our commitment is to provide you with quality coins and collectibles at the best possible prices. This piece is no exception. Please note, the coin and collectibles markets do fluctuate, and prices occasionally will change. In this rare circumstance, we will contact you first to verify your order.
