[QUOTE="MegsyB007, post: 652404, member: 13534"] I think I'm going to stick to my thoughts that it was one of his earlier ones. A lot of button makers started off making them in their homes. The fact that he didn't register his firm until 20 years after he started making buttons, seems to point to that possibility. This could have been one of his very early ones prior to the 'Made in England' ruling came in, in 1887. But just to throw a little spanner in the works, I still haven't been able to shake the little niggle in the back of my mind, that this is a French design - or possibly German. But I keep saying shhh! :) Cheers, Megsy [/QUOTE]
