As if yesterday's post wasn't enough, here are three more ball buttons—a delicious set of sunlit berries. Plastic meets plastic with these buttons as they are made of butterscotch Bakelite with precision-cut celluloid inlaid at the tops. Similar to the button I posted on Monday, the celluloid is beautifully pearlized. These buttons likely go back to the 1940's when Bakelite was phased out in favor of the cheaper plastics.
