This version is a butterfly backed pin and is 1 inch from top of Gonzo Fist to Bottom of the Gonzo blade.
This lapel pin was modeled after the original pin Hunter S. Thompson wore to his book signing at Taschen in Los Angeles. After the first night, he wore it regularly on his hat, coats, and on his lapel. Two others were made for that occasion for his guests, Sean Penn and Benicio Del Toro.
