    Best Relic of the Month / Point Value: 10

    My button made the book

    I'm Published it's official.
    Back in 2008 I found a steamship company button at a cellar hole dig. I was contacted by a family member from the company and they provided proof of who they were so I donated my button for them to have. Now it's in a nice book that just came out about steamships. They sent me a copy.
    How nice is that. Karma
