Many, many years ago I found these maroon and apple juice Bakelite rocker buttons at an antique bazaar in Hartford, Connecticut. They are the first rocker buttons I ever bought and I remember how excited I was to find such an unusual set. Turning them every which way, they look like dollops of cranberry sauce plopped inside cider ice-cubes. I've seen all kinds of rocker buttons, but I believe this color combination is hard to come by. From the 1920's.
