NEEDING HELP WITH THESE BUTTONS

[petroguy3666]

HI EVERYONE, I AM HOPING YOU CAN HELP ME ID THESE 2 BUTTONS, THEY LOOK LIKE LOUISIANA BUTTONS, BUT I AM NOT SURE. ONLY 1 OF THE 2 HAVE A BACKMARK, BUT ITS HARD TO MAKE OUT. IT LOOKS LIKE THE WORD GILT IS THERE, BUT I AM UNSURE ON IF THESE ARE LOUISIANA OR SOMETHING ELSE. PLEASE, ANY HELP IS GOOD HELP WHEN ITS FROM YOU GUYS.

Sure looks like 'em to ME! Wow!

definitely Louisiana buttons, but that's all I know about them. One of the CW experts needs to chime in on these. They must be early, because most pics on the net are two piece buttons. Awesome finds!

Thank you, I look at the backmark and I cant find any out there that I can match up with. I am sure if there is someone who knows, they are on this site

Please tell us as much of the backmark as you can read in real-life on the button in photos #3 and #4. The upper half says "treble" and "GILT" but I can't make out much of what the lower part of the backmark says.

I have written down the letters that I can make out. this might be wrong but from left to right it looks like ..A M O S C O I... but I cant be sure on the last O I, its really hard to make out. However I write ut out, it doesn't make sense to me. THANK YOU for helping me!!!

I have never seen a backmark like that. The "Treble" has a script look to it while the "gilt" is smaller block letters. And, I can't make sense of the bottom word but I don't think it is Scovills.

 

[petroguy3666]

I haven't seen any like this either. its nothing like I have ever seen

 

[petroguy3666]

I am going to try a get a better pic of the backmark

I may be wrong but it looks like the number 5 at the end of the letters - AMOSCOI5. I can't find anything on the internet either
