Smith & Wright Buttons

[manchesters]

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
