Yes! A complete set of Bakelite buttons! This collection of four strawberries took me a few years to acquire. Starting with the classic red one, I then found the lucky zinger in surprisingly bright yellow. This photo slightly misrepresents the green button, which is the third button I found. It's more of an intense lime tone in person. The last button I obtained is the orange one, which is also imprecisely depicted in this photo. It's not quite as dark as it looks here and is more of a true Creamsicle hue. These pressed Bakelite buttons go back to the 1920's or the 1930's. Strawberry Fields Forever!
