FEATURED WEB SITE: GEORGE WASHINGTON INAUGURAL BUTTON COLLECTION

Washington Inaugural Button This week's featured web site is J. Harold Cobb's George Washington Inaugural Button Collection, created by Kirk Mitchell.

Harold was the first major collector of GW's starting in the early 1950's. Over the years, he kept notes and research material on the types and numbers of buttons available, and with the encouragement from fellow collectors, put the results in his book. This book is itself a collector's item with only two printings, one in 1963, and a revised version in 1968 (revised with permission by Elmer Piercy). I have further revised it and put it in .pdf format and with the family's permission make it available for downloading. Get the book "George Washington Inaugural Buttons and Medalets, 1789-1793" (revised January 27th, 2005.
