    Original Woodstock Music and Art Fair button 1 1/4 diameter, (I think)
    These days you can find maybe 5 different button's that claim to be from Woodstock sadly very few are authentic with most from the 1980s or even later, As far as I know this was the only one used for Woodstock (one) in 1969 however it is very close to one made for the 1970 movie, I have yet to find real good reliable information on either button.
    This example I would say is in very good to great condition it has a few small spots and some minor fading of the blue or maybe this is just as made either way I rarely call a button mint or even near mint.
    The person I bought this from claimed to have got this at the festival and said he would send a L.O.A. along with the button but I did not receive it and he didn't reply to my later request that put the whole story in question to me, Still the button looks right front and back so I think it is the real deal.

    ( I like a pure black background and painted this one black that just looks funky so I will likely re-scan this after dark)
    I had this in Pins & Badges Category, Hard Rock pins Sub-Category but showed Hard Rock Cafe pins and that it's not ego it goes

      That's very cool. I know I had a pin (Batman) from the 60's and it had a date on the very edge along with some other writing, can't remember what it was. Then later I came across another and it had no writing but it was the old logo. Wonder if it was fake. Scammers leave nothing alone, do they?!!!
    4. PoliticalPinbacks PoliticalPinbacks, 7 years ago
      No they don't one seller on ebay sells 95% fake but lists them as Vintage WWII and Vietnam button's, The Gov. passed a law about clearly marking a reproduction as such (for pinbacks any how) but that didn't stop them.
      I will post the Batman button I have, if i recall it reads 1966 on the curl / edge.
      Thanks for the love and comment

      You know, I like Woodstock items and I have seen the purple ones always claiming to be from the festival, I haven't bought one - because there seem to be way too many out there to be authentic. From your research, this is the one I should look for? I know not many - if any - souvenirs were produced for the actual festival, but this is from 1969? I am always trying to learn - thanks.
    12. PoliticalPinbacks PoliticalPinbacks, 7 years ago
      This I believe to be the only one from the festival I don't know how many were made, You can find it about anytime but either at a price or in poor condition for $25 to $40 but in time one will turn up that's good for less (this one did)
      If I recall the purple one showed up in the early 80s or so and yeah when you can buy one any day of the week for $5 somethings wrong that said I have seen this one sell for $5 before so it can happen but really bums out the seller ;{
      I am always trying to learn also and always happy to help if I can.
      Thanks for the Love and Comment
