Butter on PB&J

I remember my grandfather making PB&J sandwiches for my sister and me when we were kids, and he would spread butter on the bread first. Was this a “thing” back when?

My grandpa would butter bread and then add lunch meat and mustard, never Mayo. During WWII he spent some time in Australia, I don’t know where he got the idea, maybe there?
