Here begins my week of Bakelite buttons combined with other plastics in their original constructions going back to the 1930's. To kick things off, this is a cherry red button in tested Bakelite with two pearlized stripes. The stripes are inlaid celluloid and display cleanly and with an ornate shine. Please note that all of the buttons I'm posting this week are purchases I made from my friend Doreen, who has a special knack for finding Bakelite buttons with non-Bakelite enhancements. That's exactly what I'll be posting all this week. Stay tuned for some absolutely stunning buttons.
