Litho (lithograph) – a litho is a pinback button where no celluloid is involved. The process of making a litho is done by stamping out the button from a piece of lithographed tin. There is no collet on the back of the pin as is true with celluloid pinback buttons, and the pin in the back is help in place only by the curvature of the metal rim. Lithos were commonly used starting around 1916. Litho are more susceptible to scratching since the surface of the button is not as protected as with celluloid buttons.
