1930’s Popeye Pinback Button, New York Evening Journal

Item Details

Description

Item: 1930’s Popeye Pinback Button from New York Evening Journal

Date: 1930s

Dimensions: 1.25 inches diameter

Back paper in the button reads "Wear This Button. Watch For Lucky Numbers On Comic Pages Of New York Evening Journal For Valuable Prizes." Each button has "Offset Gravure Corp. NYC Made In USA" on edge curls. These buttons came with a membership card which had the members name and read "________Has Been Elected A Member Of The Popeye Club. The Only Rule Of The Club Is That All Members See What Popeye Is Doing Every Day In The New York Evening Journal."

Other side had an image of Popeye holding paint bucket and paint brush and wording "This Sign Certifies That The Bearer Is A Member Of The Evening Journal Popeye Club. Blow Me Down!" This pin DOES NOT come with the card. The Popeye button was for a contest run by the New York Evening Journal. Readers who matched their number to the ones listed in the newspaper's funny pages won prizes. The newspaper was run by Hearst who was the first to run a daily comic strip page. In 1919 the newspaper hired cartoonist E.C. Segar to create a new comic which was called "Thimble Theater." Amazingly, it was ten years until much loved "Popeye, the Sailor Man" made his appearance. After that, he pretty much took over things, staring in television cartoons, video games and even movies.

Condition: The button has light all-over surface wear that only shows with magnification. Pin is still glossy.
