Piggybacking in Red & OJ
Many color combinations exist in my large collection of Bakelite buttons, but I think this might be the only example of a red and orange juice merger. I see this oversized button dominating the prettiest sweater in all of 1929. Factory adhered, the cherry Bakelite square is piggybacking on the OJ Bakelite octagon and though hardly complex, the result is a no-frills design of striking beauty. Not a tacky kitchen-job made by someone with a penchant for glue, this is the real deal in terms of a genuinely manufactured product—and a work of art—from the good ole days. Oh!-so-stylish.
