Book Description
Badges, buttons and pins have been around for more than a century. Now the new T-shirt, they are in art exhibits, on the lapels and bags of hipsters and fashionistas and in the sketches of the hottest designers. In Badge/Button/Pin Gavin Lucas explores the button's history since 2000 as a decorative item, revenue-raising scheme or promotional opportunity. This guide to the best and most beautiful buttons includes a set of specially commissioned buttons.
