Making a repro button is not cheap. You have to sell a gazillion of them to get your money back. The beehive button is somewhat rare so not many of them would be sold. However, you may find a Wall Street executive willing to back the endeavor if you look under enough rocks.

Yes i figured that much about them being rare and not worth reproducing them.

I still would like to know if any body has info on kinds of jackets and any other info on them they have.
