Thanks Jock; I’ll do some digging. Perhaps OCRichard has some and can help on that project too. 
Actually quite easy to find. What I do note is that while they’re not the style we’re considering, in each case, they did match the buttons on the jackets. That may answer my question.
Sincere thanks for that pointer.
