Dug this cool brass button near downtown Savannah that depicts 2 women playing tennis. Is it a sportsman button or storybook button? I believe it’s Victorian period.

Very cool unique button. That's a nice find all day long. Congrats to ya!
 

Good ID, my assumption was a little out as I thought circa 1890s, based on the construction & style.

Good observation Crus .. In the world of buttons, that button falls into the category of "figures" and dates to the 1890's.
 

it is a very cool find and has the look of times past, dresses and hats. again you have managed to dig up something very awesome.
 

Thanks guys.
