What is a Tombac ?

« on: March 07, 2016, 11:27:14 AM »

Hi folks.
Recently turned up this button, which I believe is a "Tombac" button. I know they are quite a frequant find, but my question is, does the term Tombac refer to the type of metal, or method of manufacture ( one piece )
Thanks in advance
