Dear Max: I can't find the dates for Robert Haven Schauffler, but one of his princpal malicious objects was the collar button that always managed to find the darkest corner under the dresser. Outside of a few ministers I don't remember anybody wearing collar buttons in the thirties. I didn't mean "usurp" to sound harsh. I was just feeling frustrated at being unable to locate the essay I read, which was in an American magazine, can't remember which one. At that date American magazines were not as often read in UK as they are now, so I don't suspect plagiarism.
P.S. I finally found his dates:1879 - 1969. Seems entirely possible that he wrote the essay prior to the thirties.
