Embedded Files
Nigel Harrison has had produced some sets of uniform buttons which he is offering for sale; these are based on the pattern originally created for the Year Of Railways in 1993 when staff were all supplied with period uniforms complete with these brass effect buttons and would make a great addition to any collection. These are brand-new, high quality buttons manufactured by the well known long established makers Firmin & Sons. The larger style (for blazer and coat) and smaller (waistcoat) size are both available. Anyone who would like some please let Nigel know. He has very kindly offered that to Supporters’ Association members they will be available at cost.
