Lot of 4 Robot, Outer Space BUTTONS, Brass Sputnik + Plastic set on Display Card

Description

Group lot of 4 science fiction and space travel related clothing buttons. First, there is a vintage metal button likely produced in the late 1950s or early 1960s. This one pictures a rocket ship in space zooming by a Sputnik like satellite. It has what appears to be an embossed brass front and a tin backing -- with an embedded loop shank. Also included is a La Mode set of modern sci-fi related buttons -- still attached to their original cardboard display card. This set includes a robot, a flying saucer, and the planet Saturn. This set is in great shape -- there are no missing or damaged buttons. Please refer to the ruler pictured in the image for the exact button sizes and the size of the display cards. Overall condition: Excellent..... The loose button has no noticeable flaws and the display card is like new. This cute group will display beautifully. See attached photos for more detail on the condition. ***************************************** PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT an expert on vintage buttons. My mom -- Nancy Moran -- was a longtime member of the National Button Society, plus was active in several local button clubs in New York. She is downsizing, so I am helping her sell some of her collection. But I am not familiar with all the terminology and intricacies of button collecting. I try to use various notes she left with the buttons to describe them to the best of my ability, but understand that any terms I use in describing these items, are not terms I am familiar or experienced with. So please use the attached images to form your own opinions. I am also not knowledgeable on the hobby criteria in condition grading -- so I use my condition grades in a commonsense manner -- as if grading any collectible -- they are not based on any hobby standards. Please contact me if you have specific questions, and I will answer them as best I can.
