Card of 42 ANTIQUE BUTTONS, Assorted BALL SHAPED, Various Materials, Ages, Sizes

Description: Vintage card of 42 antique clothing buttons -- all are in a BALL type shape. They were produced during various eras -- some in the 1800s, some in the early to mid 1900s, and possibly a few more modern. These buttons were made using various materials, including: glass, vintage plastic, brass, fabric, vegetable ivvory, pearl, pewter and more. Some of the styles represented are: carved, paperweight, cricket cage, molded, bright cut, OME, and others. Please refer to the ruler pictured in the image for the exact sizes of the buttons. Overall button condition: Solid VG+..... The buttons may have tarnished a bit with age, or have slight surface wear -- but there are no cracks, large chips, or other more serious flaws. The buttons are in very nice shape and will display quite nicely. See attached photos for more detail on the condition. ***************************************** PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT an expert on vintage buttons. My mom -- Nancy Moran -- was a longtime member of the National Button Society, plus was active in several local button clubs in New York. She is downsizing, so I am helping her sell some of her collection. But I am not familiar with all the terminology and intricacies of button collecting. I try to use various notes she left with the buttons to describe them to the best of my ability, but understand that any terms I use in describing these items, are not terms I am familiar or experienced with. So please use the attached images to form your own opinions. I am also not knowledgeable on the hobby criteria in condition grading -- so I use my condition grades in a commonsense manner -- as if grading any collectible -- they are not based on any hobby standards. Please contact me if you have specific questions, and I will answer them as best I can. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
