Rootbeer Ice Capades


Have you ever looked at an ice skating rink after a day's use and seen all the blade marks left over from the ice skaters? It's a spirally intricate network of fanciful loops and crisscrossing skate tracks that equal quite a design. These old rootbeer buttons look to me like an aerial view of three frozen lakes, each of them skated on thoroughly. If you guess these buttons to be Bakelite, you would be absolutely right. From the 30's or possibly the early 1940's.
