New Finds
Beutron strips of buttons.

Dating from approx 1965-1966-1967. The buttons on the right are leather.

Woolies from 1966-7, and Leda from early 1960s.

Embassy from late 1960s.
Seen online: These ? bakelite animal shapes turn up in old button tins, and have been advertised in the Australian press.

Found on Pinterest. I’m not a fan of Pinterest, as they usually don’t give the date or source of the image. I found this researching for Hollywood branded buttons, but still don’t know which company produced them in the late 1930s. The same giraffe can be seen below.
