Christmastime is nigh and here's a little reindeer button to celebrate the season. Resting on maroon Bakelite, the sterling fawn looks a bit caught in the headlights. But is it a deer or a wee dog of some sort? I brought this button with me to work the other day and the general consensus is that this is a baby deer. Still, some of my co-workers are of the opinion that this button sports a chihuahua puppy. I'm partial to chihuahuas, but I do think this button calls attention to a definite deer. Anyway, to make up for any offended pooches, I'm going to post a whole week of Bakelite dog buttons next month. That's five days of dogs, coming in January.
