One of my favorite oddity buttons, here's a Bakelite gem from the 1920's constructed in five colors! The creamed corn base tested positive for Bakelite, but then the unthinkable happens and this button sports four blister-like protuberances—also Bakelite in the colors black, green, apple juice and bright red. A true novelty of quirky workmanship and a literal artist's palette of Bakelite coloring.
