This button was recovered on Barlow’s Knoll on the field of the 1st day’s fighting north of town. Backmark: "E.M.L&C./Richmond. VA." Minor push to face. Complete with shank.
This particular relic was found by local Gettysburg resident John Cullison, who excavated relics on the field from 1935-1959. Mr. Cullison sold his collection to the famed Gettysburg Rosensteel family, who held the primary collection of Gettysburg artifacts for many years. [WS][ph:L]
