Photo of the front would be helpful to determine what the button is.

They were in Philadelphia. "William Lehmberg & Sons Masonic Clothing and Accessories then briefly occupied the building."

They made stuff for Freemasons.

Lots of cross- over with makers. While Lehmberg certainly might have limited their scope to Freemasons, that would have been unusual.
Most makers produced items that ran the full gamut-- many Fraternal organizations (Masons, Odd Fellow, GAR....), Police, Fire and of course military.
A photo of the front is needed.
