Buttons

[WesD]

I found these two guys in the Motherload country.   Our Kicker is a suspender type clip, maybe for a horse ?

and Headlight is a button.  Any of the relic experts here dare to date them?

Thanks

The head light button a cover to a push button? Guessing a very old car. The kicker plate does look horse related but might not be a production piece. Really cool finds.

Thanks Kac, The head light button is just a two piece type button with the small loop on the back, so definitely its clothing related. The Kicker clip has biting teeth on the back and a wire,  so it could be some type of suspender clip

Thanks KS!  Looks like the overalls were marketed for the train workers, but Id imagine others used them too.

Yep, looks like overall button.  Cool to find any button, in my opinion.
