Title

The Fox and the Crow

Description

1890? 1 circular FC button, brass surrounded by metal studs, 1¼" in diameter. $31 from Resa Truslow, Boise, Idaho, through Ebay, July, '99.

The pattern is the same as that on the Wiedeman button of similar proportions, but the button comes from a different mold; that is, two artists worked from the same visual pattern to make two different metal casts. The central circle containing the scene is slightly loose and off-center. Two-piece construction, with a metal eyelet welded onto the back. These studs do not have the luster of the Monleón buttons.
