Marion Weeber Buttons Study
One of the most talented industrial designers of the 1940s-50s era was Marion Weeber whose button designs were marketed under the "La Mode" brand by B. Blumenthal Button Co. Ms Weeber designed many other items including well marked jewelry and metal decorative home goods and she was an artist of paintings! On this page I am concentrating on proven Weeber designs that came from original store cards with the "Weeber label" or with her name printed right on the salesman sample card. Those examples and some documented in early issues of the National Button Bulletin are shown here. In my opinion, if you don't find images of original store cards with her sticker or sample cards showing her name it's probably a Weeber-like design. |
