Today I counted my lucky stars and it seems I have five. Bakelite cookie buttons with stars on them aren't as rare as triangles (see my post from earlier this month on April 11th), but I think they might be the second rarest of the cookies. I just don't see them very often in my search efforts. Notice how the star button at the top of this photo doesn't have the same raised or "blistered" effect as the others. I bought these buttons last year at "Foxtail Antiques and Collectibles" in Des Moines, Iowa.
