Great Collection! Always enjoy seeing and connecting with other button collectors.
Indeed Auto, I only have a very few automotive related buttons myself as my main focus the last few years has been buttons from the Vietnam era (130 or so posted here) and Political, However I did find 1 kinda nice Buick pinback that you may like it's listed on fleabay and ends this coming Sunday 10/2 with item # 311706498914 right now it's just over $2.00
Peace
Okay, thanks! If it is something I do not have, I will try to add it to my Collection. You have a very nice collection going on. How many buttons do you have in your collection now?
Lost count some time ago I know I have about 200 Pro and Anti Vietnam and roughly 3000 others between political, cause, space/NASA and sport buttons, I'm just now starting to down size and sell some off just keeping a few upper end and cause buttons, It all started by seeing a neighbors collection when I was 8 or 10 years old or at least that's who I blame it on.
It looks like you mush have hundreds of auto related buttons and from what I can see they look to be near mint VERY nice do you have others?

I know what you mean by losing count. Wow, 3,000, you do have a very big and nice collection. I can appreciate anybody, who puts a great collection together, no matter what it is they collect, because I know the time and effort it takes. It is funny, how it all starts with just one and how it grows into something so large. Yes , I have more and will be posting in future. I do have hundreds of auto buttons. As you know condition is everything. I always have been very picky so therefore 90% of my collection is near mint to mint.
Nice to connect with another button "mint freak" I only buy them if there near mint unless very rare and then look for a mint example to replace it with, so far I've only been selling duplicates but I do need to reduce stock as it take so much space to display them even with 3 walls covered I still have too many boxes tucked away.
I look forward to your posts

PoliticalPinbacks, I do the same thing, if it is a really rare button. You never know, if or when another one may become available. You can always upgrade, if a better one comes along. Glad that you are displaying them and enjoying your collection. You have a great collection! Looking forward to seeing more of your collection.
