The picture shows a view of all (6) Old Advertising Premium Clothing and Shoe Button Hook Tools in this lot. The other sides missed getting photographed but they are in the same conditions. The top wooden one does not have any advertising, so there are actually five that were used as advertising premiums. Two of these are identical. Those particular ones have a nail file on the other side. These button hooks are made of steel and one has a wooden handle. They are marked on the two sides as follows:
(wooden handle hook) no marking

To judge the sizes the bottom button hook pictured measures about 3-3/4'' long. These appear to be in excellent or better condition as pictured.
