PPIE Button


EXPOSITION BOOSTERS
PLEASE BUY BUTTONS!

Buy a button! Be a booster! Thursday is the day! Ten cents is the price!

For the purpose of raising $2,500 as a fund to defray preorganization expenses, the Panama-Pacific international exposition committee has chosen a design for a temporary official button.

Twenty-five thousand of these buttons are to be put on sale Thursday morning and the intention is to have them all disposed of before Thursday night. It will be known as exposition boosters' button day. Don't be seen on the street without one.

Be loyal! Buy a button!
