Vintage Metropolitan Museum of Art Metal Admission Buttons Large "MMA" - this is a fun vintage find for lovers of 'The Met', and a great addition to your collection; these are the vintage colorful metal admission buttons for the Metropolitan Museum of Art located on Fifth Avenue in New York City; initiated in 1971, the metal buttons were given out with each ticket and required to be worn around the museum; visitors were carefully watched by the museum security guards to ensure that each visitor's button was visible; the buttons were created in more than 16 different colors and the museum would rotate the color selection and use a different color every day; the museum ceased using them in 2013 due to rising cost of production; these vintage buttons are based upon a design using the Museum's large "MMA" logo.
