American Button-Hole, Overseaming, and Sewing Machine Company. Flier featuring a picture of a woman in formal dress sitting at a sewing machine. Imprint: 1874.
Today is yet another obscure holiday of unknown origin, Button Day.
But the lack of knowledge of why there is such a thing as Button Day shouldn't prevent us from celebrating all things button, or from highlighting a button-related item from our collections.
From the Libraries' digital collection, Sewing Machines.
Go, buttons!
