    These buttons were left by the previous homeowners. They are in a vintage Samsonite train briefcase. One button has a sort of beetle design. The other golden ones look like they have a family armor w/ 3 lions on it. One is white w/ a pink convex part.
    I have both "Rotary Electric Sewing Machine Model B Instruction Book" and a Singer "Student's Manual of Machine Sewing". I also have little packets that say "Extra Buttons" in what appears to be Old English script and a big needle and I believe a thread puller (I forgot the name of this item).
