The picture below show a larger view of all (3) Colorful Old Comic or Risque Tin Pin Back Buttons With Sayings in this lot. The backs are silver in color and blank. They are not dated but they are believed to be from the 1950s. They may have been used as a premium, a prize, sold in old gum ball machines, or in five and dime stores. They appear to be from the same set. These were all found together. they are marked ''MADE IN JAPAN'' but the maker is unknown. We do not know how many are in the complete set. Each of these pinback buttons has a comic or cartoon illustration. In the order pictured, they are marked as follows: (pictures a man walking in on a couple kissing on a couch) HELLO STRANGER(pictures a man driving and looking at a billboard that reads:) 8 GALS FOR $1.00 (pictures a fruit dealer or grocer man and a woman) PLEASE DON'T SQUEEZE DA BANANA All of these for one price! The pinback buttons each measure 1-3/8'' wide. They appear to range from good (bottom right) to mint condition as pictured. |
