More pics maybe?

This is a board which I originally sold some time ago. I do remember it was picked up in a vet grouping by a friend of mine in Canada. I don't recall black thread protruding the tress but rather wear to the tress which exposed the underlying material. This one really talks to you when in hand.

Correct!
Here are some moore pics.

What's got me spooked is frame #4. If you look at the tresse you can see black thread being used to stitch it on. Definitely need a close up of the top.

These don't have that much wear. Hardly any if you look at the buttonholes.

I think what you are seeing here as black thread is the thread inside the tress, this is visible in the photos above where the threads that hold the tress too strap enter and exit the tress.

Somewhat like in the photo below borrowed from another thread but illustrating what I am saying above in this case the thread is white.
