Not sure if its a dogs head or a bear,button is so brittle that I cant clean it anymore less it crumples to pieces.

Here are the flat buttons,top button was a 2 piece,tried like heck to find the front part .It sounded like a pull tab,but since this was near a site where I pulled a few oldies I dug her up just the same.

Hi use Aluminum Jelly & a small brass brush to cleanup the button

Yep I keep hearing plenty about that aluminum jelly,but I dont think its sold here in Canada.Next trip to the USA I will be picking up a bottle for sure.
 
We call them barrell taps.

The button is a a hunting dog, sports button.
 
Nice finds I like the glass toper also. The buttons are cool to.
