    I am totally IN for that presentation. Thank you.

    I'm in love with ALL buttons, but I need to have a better knowledge base.

    The Idaho State Button Society and the Historical Button Club are sponsoring the event. The presentation is byJoan Lindsay who has published books on historical buttons. -

    "After the presentation experienced collectors will be available to answer questions about collectible and antique buttons." Perhaps Matthew will be "present"?

    Amanda, I tried to find her books on Amazon, but no luck... if you know the title(s), let me know - for our Amazon shop :).

    I attended the webinars and I thought it was quite interesting. Thank you for letting us know about it. These were some hard core button experts! I wish they provided the presentation slides they used.
