Button back needed...

[brnn53]

Anyone have a 23mm Horstmann&Allien/NY button back that they would want to get rid of or sell? I'm trying to reconstruct a button that I found that's missing the back. Thanks.

I'll check my buttons... what is the face of the button? And - how do you know that was the back mark?

I posted this button a few months back. I now think it is a Republican Blues button. I actually did find the back recently while going through my collection of relics found at this site. It is in rough shape but I may use it to reconstruct the button. Thanks.

My partner just dug one of these the front looks great the back is pretty caked up right now. Can't make out the backmark. He's gonna leave it be.

Good luck!
