Item #: cuwkc50. Buttons: 3/4" diameter. Work Clothes buttons of the early 1900's. They are reminders of an era of long working hours, with no overtime pay, no sick pay or unemployment compensation and few retirement benefits.

The trademarks were associated with strength, toughness, obstinacy, or leadership qualities. The backs of the work clothes buttons are of tinned steel, which was actually made out of tin plate obtained from discarded tin cans up to about the First World War.
