Work Description
J. Harold Cobb was the primary collector of inaugural buttons that commemorated the George Washington's first inauguration. These were simple buttons with a variety of designs, which were generally limited to men of means. Their rarity and historical significance has made them the Holy Grail for button collectors, Political memorabilia, and collectors. The original edition was dated 1964, but after Harold's death, a friend provided another edition at 1969. The final edition is provided by the husband of Harold's granddaughter, after the successful sale of Harold's significant collection of buttons. The final edition is provided as a free PDF file at http://moscow2.pld.com/kirk/CobbGW/GWIBM.pdf
