About Jim Stanley & Associates (cwartifax.com)
I buy, collect and sell Civil War relics!
My specialty includes excavated and non-excavated buttons & plates, excavated pistols & swords, ID’s and corps badges, superb images, great-content soldier letters and other unique, rare & colorful paper.
I have been collecting Civil War material since I was 12, or since 1978. I am on the board of the Civil War Dealers and Collectors Association and am a member of the Company of Military Historians. I can cheerfully provide references or additional information about me upon request.
I’m very happy to go shopping for you. If there is an item you are serious about buying, and I don’t have it, ask anyway. I may be able to find it for you. Send me your "want" lists! Some people email me every few months just to remind me they are looking for a particular item, regiment or whatever. I don’t mind! It helps keep your interests foremost in my mind!
Need cash??
Please keep me in mind when selling single items or collections. I pay extremely fair dealer prices and am particularly keen to acquire top quality buttons and plates, dug or nondug!
TO CONTACT ME: Please email unless you absolutely must use the phone. Because of my other job, family obligations and church responsibilities, I just don’t have time for lengthy telephone conversations. And I never do appraisal over the phone. It’s not fair to you or me. Email (cwartifax@aol.com) is the best way to reach me. Again, if you don’t know how to use email or have no access to it, then please call, leave a message and I will try my very best to get back to you. Thanks so much for understanding.
