Yes, the yellow one is called a "plastic goofie."Which is your favorite?
The paperweight? Steel points?
I don't have a fancy camera like you guys, but you get the picture.This is about half of the button collection at the Lightner Museum.
Free to St. Johns County residents!
My favorites are the 3 China ones and the piecrust button. Oh, and I love the button lady.
ReplyDeletethat place has so much STUFF. i've never noticed the buttons. hope you have a good weekend. did you decide to go?
ReplyDeleteha - the "plastic goofie" one is the only one I read the name of, which makes your comment below the picture especially poignant!
ReplyDeleteokay, I finally took a closer look; here are my faves: black glass, glass mirror, paperweight, and milkglass piecrust - I guess I like glass buttons! but I also like the fleck on bone and circa 1850 rubber ones
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, and the corozo!!
