I found this strange cuff button over the weekend at my button site. Never saw it before, & after cleaning was very surprised it says "World Wide Wireless" with a globe motif. Now this is a button from probably the 1920's-40's (as the latest button found here is WWII type). So it appears in this day & age to be almost like a current logo for like a computer thing or a cell phone thing...
I have not done any research yet, but all's I can figure is that is may be mean wireless telegraph....
I'll update with anything I find out....
HH,
Bill
