7/8", no maker's name. Celluloid has one full diagonal and four much shorter hairline celluloid cracks plus a few very tiny age traces on the rim. Button still displays well and with gloss. Krazy Kat has cigar in mouth, wears a hat and holds large sign "Meet Me At The Talkies". Button is c. 1929 when Charles Mintz made a deal with Columbia Pictures to adapt Krazy Kat to sound cartoons. The first sound release was "Ratskin" on Aug. 15, 1929. A new discovery and only one known to us. VG. Rare.
