[civilman1]

I rolled into rtde3's (Rob's) place around 7:00pm Thurs. night,ate some pizza and drank a few chilly's and then I was introduced to the "Shark Pit"........needless to say I had to excuse myself Man what a display.....This is where "everything" make's sense,just beautiful.Thank's Rob 4:00 sharp we were met by Sea Biscuit and left MD headed for NC on the Magic Bus.

We finally made it down 9:30 and set up at the campgorund and right on time we were met by cwdigger(sittin') and dragon6banger(l) and then of course there's Rtde3(r.top) and good ole Floyd

Nice Finds!!

 

[99Brown]

Great finds!

The heart shaped button, I am told, as I have a similiar one, is an early (not sure how early) Carhartt Brand Button. Hence the train/trolley car inside the heart shaped button (Car-Heart).
I have one that is similiar though i believe more like 1910-1920's time frame and I will try to see if I can find it and scan it. As for the age and anymore information on yours, I am sure someone will have it for you. PBK?
