Who is this guy?

[diggummup]

Anybody recognize this guy? He looks familiar but I can't place him. It's a button, 1" in diameter, no markings on the back, metal back.

In the 1970s, the design of all Gollies changed from the old Golly with "pop eyes" to the present day Golly with eyes looking to the left.

had to laugh, at the language barrier - Button is a weird name (English speaking US Folk use) for a Badge

No, there's no language barrier problem. It is an actual button, now if it were what you Brits call a "badge", then I think I would call it a "pinback" although "pinback button" is also used . Thanks to all who replied and for the age/date reference too Mackaydon.
