The Scrivener's Button Cabinet: A Twentieth Century Clothing Button Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781434381941)

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.
