I put it on my list of Great Seal button backmarks a while back. Cant quite read it after Arnstein Simon. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,212590.0.html

I must admit, I found this on Bigcy's list then did a little more research to confirm. I found references to this company from the 00's to the 20's.

Thanks Bigcy!

Thats what its here for. Ill add the dates.

I havent researched all the datelines. If I see a pic of the button, I add it to the list. Actually this may be the only Arnstein button I have seen. Here is the pic from my files and it appears to be the same button. It may be rare.
