Rob,
Very impressed with your new Button albums.
A lot of research gone into those and much appreciated.
I only collect buttons to the constituent units of the Manchester Regiment and my favourites are those made in Ireland for the Officers of the 63rd Foot whilst stationed there. I have 2 makers, namely:-
A. Clancy, Dublin; P. Tait & Co, Limerick
I also like Manchester based makers and have buttons to the Manchester Regiment by:-
J.H. Hilton & Co, Manchester (QVC) David Jones, Manchester (KC)
There must be overseas makers of this Regiments buttons out there but havent seen any so far.
regards
