As shown.
I am a former professional museum conservator.
Recovered by a colleague over several years from a Confederate campsite along the North Anna River.
I have terrible eyesight, so I can work with these materials only a few hours per day and under extreme magnification.
Mechanical cleaning methods are all I use (never chemicals).
I purchased an extensive button collection from a former colleague back in 2015, and I have been studying and cataloging them since.
My colleague was a well-known amateur archaeologist. He used metal detectors and pioneered some of the search methodologies still used today. He visited quite literally thousands of historic sites here and the US and abroad.
From a smoke-free home.
I am visually disabled. If I miss something, it is NOT intentional.
