    Most have 13 large buttons; three on each sleeve and three on each pocket, plus one in the middle. Additionally there are two small buttons for the epaulettes and another 5 or 6 small ones for the waistcoat.

    Oh! There are buttons on the pockets. Someone was selling chrome buttons from their Argyle a few days ago, and I couldn't figure out why there were so many buttons.

    Thanks.
