11 An original pair of WW2 fly buttons that put together double as a compass. These were issued to aircrew hence being black in colour and were worn on the battledress uniform, they would have been sewn onto the battledress jacket or trouser fly as if a normal button but if in trouble they could easily be removed from the clothing and put together to form a very clever and accurate compass, the bottom button has a pointed spindle axis to it and the top button has a dished centre to allow it to locate on the lower buttons spindle, the bottom button is of the usual blackened brass and the top is of blackened magnetised steel. these are an early war production as brass buttons were replaced with bakelite/plastic mid war. They are in perfect condition 100% original and come still wrapped in original tissue paper, just as they left the factory that produced them. These are in lovely original condition, the photos don't do them justice.
