Description

The listing, *I did more research***CIVIL WAR!!!Old Buttons WWI? orWWII and over 60 years has ended.

I inherited these buttons from my Grandma over 45 years ago, when I was 10. My grandmother told me the small ones were from WWII. My mother who is 75 saw her mother with the large buttons when she was still at home. I have a large selection I inherited and am willing to part with these at home. I have an antique sewing collection displayed on my wall in my sewing room, I look at it every day and am reminded my Grandma who taught me to sew when I was 10 and spent the summer. When I got home, we got news she had passed. I want these buttons to go to a good home. A#0103-07. **BONUS** if you help with postage, I will give you one more set from my collection. Thank you everyone.********I HAVE GONE ON LINE AND FOUND AN AUCTION ON EBAY WITH THE LAST PIC SHOWN, A COLLECTION OF WWI Latvian Buttons. Look at the bottom row some of them look like the ones I have. I went and searched for WWI buttons I have a ton of the metal ones!!! I am going to do more research for value and see the actual age of my metal ones and may auction off a couple. Stay tuned!! I've been storing these buttons a long time and so did my grandmother. tHANK YOU SCOOTER! I was told the small button are from CIVIL WAR PJS. Look at the last 2 pics from civil war. I also was told they had bones ones too, I HAVE A TON OF BONE ONES TOO!!! if anyone else has any info please let me know. I will definitely research on the rest of my collection. My grandmother gave me a GALLON of antique buttons, I have saved, traveled and cherished these button for almost 56 years. There were many military men on my moms side. i have all of her antique sewing tools also. If anyone is interested let me know, and I might post some of it.

I have a gallon of military metal buttons. I might have them tested for what metal. I know they are at least 80+ years. I inherited all my grandmas sewing and craft stuff. She did younger than me (55). My buttons go with me from home, to college, to home and "sew" on! I will only part with "sew" much, as I have an antique collection of my own.
