Button is 1.5", no maker name. This is from the late 1930s or early 1940s. Given its extreme rarity (we've seen only few in our 57 years) it was likely issued by a local and relatively small town newspaper which carried the strip. Traced of aging to front/back. Front has moderate surface wear mostly only seen in reflected light. Still bright and glossy w/deep red color. VF. Gene Seger Buck Rogers Collection.
