2025 Button Report

This was a milestone year with the collection reaching a significant milestone and ending the year with 10,133 buttons!!! 

A nice variety of new buttons were added, 460 in all, each one a special reminder of the subject and/or the button's donor. There were no new donors this year and so the tally remains at 234 donors since the collection began in the early 1970s. 

The collection is broken down into ten major categories (with a multitude of sub-categories): Businesses, Causes, Entertainment, Holidays, Miscellaneous, Music, Pets, Politics, Sports, and Tourism.
