Greetings Folks,
I was sorting through my images last night and had my interest piqued again by these images. The first is the shoulder strap button on Pvt. James Woods Brunson's kersey Type II. The next is an image that was for sale a number of years back. Note the similarities with at least the button's rounded center on the jackets. Are the gentleman's buttons wooden? Who knows for sure but they do look similar to my eye. Anyway, the wooden button on Brunson's jacket is not a replacement and match the indentations on the nine button front. Interesting comparison.
There's your CS material culture fix for the day!
