Button Clips

Have you ever wondered how the little clips that you find attached to the shanks of uniform buttons were made?

The Australasian (Melbourne), 1st February 1941 page 11.

They were advertised at 2½d per card of 1 dozen in 1947. They are known as Cotter pins or (because of their shape) R-clips.
