Lot of original very early 1900's lithographed old stock from a celluloid pinback button and ribbon badge manufacturer. This lot is part of a collection that most likely was from the old Hyatt Manufacturing Company in Baltimore- "Makers of Buttons and Badges of Every Kind." I'm sure collectors of these types of items will recognize these images from antique ribbon badges. T he papers are too fragile to handle to count them but you can see the height of the stacks in the pictures. Overall in good condition - still crisp and colors are bright. The paper is fairly brittle with age so there may be some tears, edge chips, discoloration, etc. Old and original- sold "as is."This lot includes:-20 sheets of Robert E Lee Virginia Division Chapter No 56 U.D.C. round button images- 2 per sheet- 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" page-15 sheets of Daughters of the Confederacy 1861- 65 .
