| | | The pictures below show larger front and back views of all (4) 1896 Sweet Caporal Cigarette Premium State Seal Celluloid Pin Back Buttons in this lot. These pinback buttons were part of an 1896 collection of pinback buttons that we had acquired. They were used as a premium from Sweet Caporal Cigarettes. They appear to be from the same set. It is unknown how many are in the complete set. Each of these pinback buttons have an image of a United States State seal or emblem from the Victorian era. There are a Sweet Caporal and Whitehead & Hoag Company advertising paper inserts in the back of three of the four pins. In the order pictured, they have the following states:
NEW YORK
RHODE ISLAND
ARKANSAS
