What's on your backside

[Les]

Who has buttonhole mini's with maker names on the button? Godet? Too common. Who has some unusual ones? Let's see the backsides (and the fronts).

Sorry, Godet's only.

I'll play along----

Here is a Freidrick knights cross by "Fr. Steinam". A EK2 marked "Gesetzlich-Geschutzt"

and a frack chain with a Meybaurer makers mark on it.

Nice - this should be the shop or istitute of the late Dr. Kurt-G. Klietmann, called "Die Ordenssammlung".

It looks like he mounted with his own buttons

Most of mine are literally buttons: 4 holes to sew on. Or they are marked "Extra Fein" or "Ne Plus Ultra" or some such generic button brand name, or simply are patterned or fabric covered.

These are the only ones I have which show the retailers' names:

Eitze, I believe you picked the right answer . With the activities of his wife Anne-Lise in mind, manufacturing his own buttons doesn't seem too far fetched
