| | | The picture shows a front and back view of this 1896 Manchester Locomotive Works Steam Fire Engine Advertising Celluloid Pin Back Button. This advertising pinback button was part of a large 1896 collection that we had acquired. It has a lightly colored black imprinted image of an early fire wagon or steam engine on a tan or beige background. The back has a paper insert with some fancy scroll designs. It is marked on the two sides and the edge as follows: MANCHESTER LOCOMOTIVE WORKS THE WHITEHEAD & HOAG. CO. 611 WASHINGTON ST. BOSTON, MASS. MAIN OFFICE & FACTORY NEWARK, N.J. PATENTED JULY 17, 1894 APRIL 14, 1896 JULY 21, 1896 PAT. JULY 21, 1896 The pinback button measures 1-1/4'' wide. It appears to be in excellent condition with some light age spotting as pictured. |
