Monkey Buttons

At Surplus of Options.

I have a limited series of four 3" buttons near the front counter at Surplus of Options, at Lincoln and Waveland Avenues in Chicago. These buttons feature a drawing by me of a monkey's face with a whole scene surrounding him of airplanes, front doors, Goodyear Tires, etc. IT TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE!

Anyway, there are 6 buttons total available. Four of them are limited edition high quality ink-jet prints, one is a one-of-a-kind print on brown paper, and one is the ORIGINAL DRAWING BY ME, FRED J. HENZEL. Each piece consists of the artwork laminated inside of a mylar coating for lifetime guaranteed freshness and cinched in the back with a steel ring and pinned backing, so you can go ahead and fasten one of these bad muthas onto your shirt. And who is behind this excellent craftsmanship? Busy Beaver Button Company, of course!
