Description: This pair of buttons advertise the Palmer Method of writing. Mr. Palmer was opposed to the beautiful but laborious Spencerian handwriting and instead promoted a faster method more suited to business. Employers wanted legible records done quickly not beautiful records done slowly. Its popularity was at its height in 1915. These buttons probably date to that era.
