Hang on to your hats, everybody. Here's a nifty button that's shaped...like a hat! An oldie-but-goody from the 1930's, the green Bakelite upper part is a flat disk attached to a metal plate. In other words, here's Bakelite on a silver platter. While the button is shaped like a pork pie hat, the shadow bears a resembles to a taller top hat. This little oddity comes from an antique store I visited a few weeks ago in Scottsdale, Arizona. So yippie-yi-yay and hats off to a jim-dandy button!
