Super-Hero & Sci-Fi Pin/Button Lot (1980s-90s)....

Description

Super-Hero & Sci-Fi Pin/Button Lot (1980s-90s). This eclectic cache spans the golden age of pop-culture convention swag, gathering 56 vintage lapel pins and celluloid buttons that celebrate comics, film and TV icons. DC standouts include multiple enameled Batman and Superman pins, Superman "S" shields still on their red backer cards, and a Green Lantern emblem. Marvel highlights feature twin X-Men: Mutant Genesis launch pins (1991) and several Spider-Man and Dr. Strange pieces.
Star Trek is represented by a gold-tone tri-delta command insignia pin. Convention pedigree surfaces in a scarce San Diego Comic-Con 20th Anniversary 1989 button. The lot rounds out with novelty items such as "Kryptonite for Superman" tie-tack. Most enamel pieces retain bright paint and secure clutches on the few that use them; the larger pin-backs show mild handling but remain glossy. This mixed-media assortment offers an instant splash of comic-shop color for display boards-or the perfect reserve of trade fare for your next convention run.
