A fantastic piece of early \"tech humor\" history! This original vintage pinback button perfectly captures the era when computers were first becoming part of daily life. Because it remains in its original packaging, the face is well-preserved with bright colors. Perfect for vintage computer collectors, IT professionals, or fans of 20th-century retro ephemera.
The back of the pin is stamped with the iconic \'Badge-A-Minit, LaSalle, Illinois\' mark, confirming its authenticity as a vintage piece from the legendary Illinois-based button company. This particular typography and the Illinois stamp help date this piece to the late 70s or early 80s.
