Thanks Cobra, I'll see if I can get some new, higher-quality photos and clear things up. Cheers.

Working on a project and was hoping for some help narrowing down a specific timeframe for this button. From my research it looks to be a button made by Benedict and Burnham. Marked B & B EXTRA. Am I correct in dating it pre 1849 when the company became the Waterbury Button Company?   Any help is greatly appreciated! 

Very nice ring!! Great pics. I have a helm wheel from a 36’ motor lifeboat.    Chris

Thank You..

I’m sorry, Nestor, my eyes are not that good. Is the word “ZIPPO” stamped or engraved?
