Button I found yesterday

[Janacarole]

Another button! It's pretty corroded but you can make out Jaynell on it. After looking over my other buttons, I have another jaynell button.

Can't find much information on the name other than Jaynell items are rare.

Congrats! I noticed in your other post the "work" buttons...the locomotive button and the "Jaynell" buttons are classic 1900-1930 work buttons, they are riveted and never meant to come off of a garment. The fact that you found two "Jaynell" buttons along with a ton of nails suggests you are in the area of a burned building. I highly suggest you work around where the buttons are coming from, removing all the nails as you go. Get a pinpointer to help clear the nails. The multiple buttons from one brand means a article of clothing once existed there and all of the contents in the pockets. (If any) Also look for early plastic combs or pipe smoking materials, glass shirt buttons. Take your time and enjoy.

Here are a few from that time period I found in a burned logging camp


All of these buttons were riveted or studded and never meant to be removed from the clothing...

Buttons that don't have the "donut" hole could be from Coats and could also be a "snap" type button.
Buttons with the riveted donut hole are usually work pant buttons that often held suspenders in place.
