Description: This button produced by Tokio cigarettes, a very popular brand at the beginning of the 1900's. These were produced around 1910, and came free with the cigarettes. The buttons are lithographed images with a celluloid cover. Most have the paper insert from the particular brands of cigarette inside the pin's back. These buttons feature the art of the popular newspapers cartoonists at the dawning of the America's comics page. The button's artist's are the icons who's innovations lead the way to the comics we know today. This lot features the artwork of Hal Coffman.Harold Roberto “Hal” Coffman was born in Los Angeles, California on January 3, 1883, according to his World War I draft card. Coffman was a jack of all trades with Hearst Newspapers, supplying large Sunday editorial cartoons (spelling McCay), weekday news and social cartoons, story illustrations, sports cartoons, you name it. Coffman had a long career, at least into the 1940s, but he was never particularly comfortable with series comic strips. The few he did were short-lived. These are for collectors of Vintage Tobacciana and Cartoon ephemera and anyone who likes vintage cool that's well made. I will carefully package these pins so they arrive in the condition shown. Any questions? Need more photos? Feel free to contact me through eBay. Thanks for looking and please check out my store! Keeth.
