    Two c. 1973 Vietnam protest buttons.

    1st - I'm A VIETNAM DROPOUT 1.750 diameter.

    2nd - SIGN THE AGREEMENT - MARCH AGAINST DEATH - WASHINGTON JANUARY 20 (1973) PCPJ 1.750 diameter, Anti Nixon.
    PCPJ = People's Coalition for Peace and Justice,
    Curl reads: PCPJ 156 5th Ave.NYC 10017 - NG Slater Corp NYC 11 with a Union Bug (logo)
    This one is from The Marshall Levin collection part of his story can be found on my last 2 uploads.
    I uploaded a image of the back side of the SIGN THE AGREEMENT button just to show the remarkable condition of The Marshall Levin collection most all of the thousands of buttons from his collection from the 60s & 70s are like new, Many of his older buttons dating back to 1896 are very near mint also.

      Great link and song there Roycroft if that one doesn't bring a tear to the eye somethings wrong it gets me every time I hear it as it rings so damn true I've lost a few good friends that way for that reason, I protested but never against our troops, hugged many shared what I had and called many my friend, History has been the judge on that "police action" and on how poorly too many were treated when finely home then not treated by the VA at very least we learned about PTSD that now helps other young GIs as a whole we learned a lot from those who fought who we owe a great debt.
      THANK YOU
      Everyone should click that link and hear the true sounds of war.
