What's the best source for vintage buttons?

[eniksleestack]

is there a single website or collection of websites (other than eBay) for finding vintage buttons?

I have numerous vintage garments, both military and civilian, missing their buttons. Searching eBay is fun but time-consuming and often fruitless.

Any suggestions?

Vintage Buttons

The very best source is Tender Buttons, N.Y.C.

Here's an Unlikely Source!

There's a notions store that was moved lock, stock, and barrel from South Africa to Frederick, Maryland (of all places). The stock was purchased mostly in the 30's, and it is unequivocably the best source for buttons, and all sorts of things. It's called "Accessories of Old." Google it, as they have just moved to Frederick from Bethesda, Md. They even had beautiful round vintage eyeglass frames.
