I will see what I can find out in my reference book: <br />http://www.amazon.com/Buttons-Diana-Epstein/dp/B000C4SY16<br /><br />This book is gorgeous, and provides beauty and history. <br /><br />If you love something, what is $50.00? I paid that for a retired stamp set and my friends thought I was crazy. It is so darned cute! I did feel a little bit like a bonehead afterward, but it will hold it's value or increase, just like good antiques and authentic antique buttons.
