Battleship Brand

I found this button today and so far this is the closest I can come to identifying it. The logo on the label matches the ship on the button perfectly. Now I’m trying to date it. I sent an email to the library up there that posted the label and am waiting to hear back from them. Buford sniffed out a good one today!!!!!!

It is what's left of a wobble shank overall button from the Louisville Clothing Company, circa 1900-1908.. neat find!

Good deal!! I thought it was early 1900s from the shape of the ship, but I wasn’t positive. Thanks!!!
