Getting close to finishing the Vietnam buttons currently in my collection, Last upload I though I had about 6 or 8 to go however AFTER a rough count I have 17ish to go after these if I upload the more basic ones.
The 1st and 4th are Lithograph, 2nd and 3rd are Celluloid.
1st - Kill For Peace, Lyndon Johnson (Who I now think got a bad rap back then) 1.25 diameter.
2nd - How Many More? A popular question and button in the early 1970s 1.25 diameter.
3rd - Vets for Peace from DonnellyColt 1.5 diameter.
4th - 1967 R,W&B Map of the U.S.A. with a Peace Dove From Larry Fox the Original Button Man, Detroit MI 1.75 diameter. Larry Fox made buttons for SPU, SMC, SDS, VFP and many others as well as his own under The Button Man.
Again I find it amazing the fine condition of the buttons in your collection.
That first one is a Scream !!!
Thanks Collecto it has taken some time to find them in this condition but I enjoy the hunt and I'm a total mint freak when it comes to buttons although some of the more rare ones I replaced with near mint over the years after making due with condition issues (now I just need to start replacing body parts with such issues)
I like that one too vetraio, I take it you remember the times.
Kinda thought the 2nd fit following that one.
Thanks 4 the Love(s)
