5/27/23 Button Find in VA

[hallieparsons]

My husband found this button in our cow field today in VA! I can’t find much info on it, but finally saw it says “Solidite Paris” on the back. The front says “H.G Fledderman” and something else like “Dalto” ? I can’t read it well.
Any info or history on timeframe of this or where it would’ve came from? It has to be old!!

I found where an H.G. Fledderman was listed in an 1871 Maryland trade journal as being a Merchant Tailor address: SE corner of Howard and Fayette, in Baltimore. I did a google search for H G Fledderman clothier, in case you’d want to look it up. Very nice find!👍🏼
