The Screwy 7


All this week I'm going to be posting Bakelite buttons that are especially sought-after by collectors since they are shaped novelties and go back to the "trinket jewelry" fad of the 1930's and 40's. Today's photo depicts 7 screw-shaped buttons in a burnt orange color that leans toward a befitting rust tone. I have no clue what variety of outfit these decorated once, but I imagine the wearer of these carroty screws was nothing short of a zany individualist.
