encourage others to assist with my research into Button Manufacturers and Suppliers, (Unifom and Dress), whose names or marks appear on buttons and the other artifacts they left behind for us to find. I am, forced to admit, ( having spent half mine trying), that what I set out to achieve is beyond the scope of one lifetime. I collect vintage, antique & modern buttons from anywhere in the world - as long as they are marked, to me a button without a mark is an artwork without a signature. I hope you will find lots of information on these pages not available elsewhere. For the benefit of those of you who are actively contributing there are further resources available in the form of password protected files & pages-soon to be available directly from this site. The records I hold on British company histories are extensive, containing information from: The City Directories; Poor Rate Books; UK Patent Abridgements; Trade Mark Journals; The London, Edinburgh & Belfast Gazettes online, as well as material from a number of archives and their online catalogues covering the period from around 1700 to modern times. I am always happy to answer queries if I am able and that's quite a big if - whether you are able to contribute or not ! I currently, ( November 2011), manage around 2500 page views per month but those numbers are slightly below what I was achieving in 2007-2008. Hopefully with the re-vamp & fresh content I will be able to improve on those results - and therefore feedback. Don't forget if you want to see more of a particular subject you need to provide feedback; no feedback no more info... old material is loaded and links all lead somewhere, I will make sure they display 100% & then I shall load new material. The reason for publishing these unfinished/ pages is that my software isn't playing ball It's supposed to be wysiwyg but it's more like wysiwyag, (a =almost). At the current rate they should be all be, at least, displaying correctly within the week. Please see Issues for further information |
