Description
Note on back of photo: Some important buttons connected with the early history of the United States. The top left button is known as an Inaugural button on which is placed the initials of the president. Around the edge is a chain of links, each one containing the initials of one of the thirteen colonies. The other examples are of the eighteenth century and are obviously connected with the President or the nation. Courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Landis
