Catalog of button backmarks
Hyde & Goodrich, New Orleans Louisiana
Hyde & Goodrich were partners operating in New Orleans supplying military goods to a number of states in the deep south. Most of their buttons were subcontracted with Scovill, who produced backs bearing the H & G name.
Most information on this page is from Tice's book, Dating Buttons..., the pictures are generally from buttons that I have handled.
