Vintage Bisbee Arizona Mine Mill Smelter Workers Union Cap Dues Button Badge:
$25.00
Original vintage monthly dues membership button from the historic International Union of Mine, Mill, and Smelter Workers (IUMMSW), discovered right here in Bisbee, Arizona. This classic three-color tin lithograph features a white background, crisp dark blue perimeter lettering, and a bold red central logo reading MINE MILL.This specific variant features a factory-stamped center hole designed for copper miners to secure the badge onto their canvas work caps or overalls while working underground in the historic Copper Queen Mine or surrounding operations. This is an exceptional, tangible artifact of Arizona industrial labor history—perfect for mining memorabilia collectors, labor union historians, or regional Cochise County enthusiasts.Condition Note: - Front: Genuine vintage survivor condition. The striking red, white, and blue lithograph paint remains remarkably clear with deep, fully legible typography.
