Saturday morning my wife and I went to a once a year, local flea market. We got there early so the pickin' was good. Among other things, I bought some buttons.
The first two pics, front/back, $1 each.
Next two pics, front/back, $20 for the lot.
Closeup pics, I would like to know a little more about these. The Artillery button has a T W & W , PARIS. back mark. Turns out to be, TRELON WELDON & WEILL, PARIS. 1814-1865. Russa??
The next button looks like a cuff size two piece, MAINE , state seal. G. W. SIMMONS & SON, BOSTON. The age is in question on this one
Thanks for any help, VPR
