DBM, I am up for the challenge.
Yes, from what I understand the whole Tory conservative/social credit idea merged as one. I may be mistaken but don't they call Deifenbaker the last Tory?
So their is a federal party logo and than provincial logos as well. I have some PC for NB or if I could vote I would vote NB Liberal buttons with no candidates on them. I call these generic party buttons. What I will have to do is find a button with the same logo and a candidate. From there I can date the button via the candidate and note the logo used. That becomes tricky though when you have people like Richard Hatfield who spent over a decade in office.
As an aside the latest bag of buttons I bought all seem to be from Nova Scotia. So in this bag I have Mayor or City council buttons with Surnames only. I can assume they are also from Nova Scotia and start googling their names with key words like NS, Nova Scotia, HRM, Sydney etc.
I will have fun with this. Thank you for your input. I may try to put together a little article or collection focus and look at putting it up here. I kind of like the idea of doing a set of Liberal buttons from New Brunswick's McKeena sweep.
