The Scrivener's Button Cabinet: A Twentieth Century Clothing Button Collection

By Sandra Jackson

Based on the premise that "todays collectibles are tomorrows' antiques", how can we identify valuable buttons of the twentieth century? This book is both a history and pictorial review of clothing buttons left over at the close of an elegant twentieth century store. This glimpse and their historical context should help collectors gain a working outline of what was produced and sold during the 1940 to 1990's in the Southern Texas region of the USA. A bonus is the inclusion of many of the favored recipes from the Tea Room.
