Description

A large badge around 7 cm across: red at the top with «I Was Born This Way», yellow below with «WHAT’S YOUR EXCUSE?». On the back a safety pin set in the metal rim.

About the format

This is not a lapel pin but a button in the old large format — around 7 cm, the kind worn on denim jackets and cut-offs in the seventies and eighties. On a lapel the thing looks heavy; that is exactly the point.

How it is made

Printed metal, crimped over a rim, on the back a sprung safety pin held in the metal. The colours are strong and unfaded, the lettering sharp.

Measured

Around 7 cm in diameter, read off the tape. The tape lies beside it in the second photograph.

Key facts

  • Button of printed metal
  • Around 7 cm across (read off the tape)
  • Red and yellow, lettering on two lines
  • Safety pin on the back, sprung
  • No maker’s mark

Condition

Good. Colours strong, lettering sharp. A few small spots and light scratches on the surface. The pin holds and closes.
