    TODAYS NEW ADDITION! Found at a Wisconsin estate sale hidden out in the barn! This 1960s two foot diameter scrap metal hippie folk art PEACE SYMBOL or sign is without a doubt one of a kind. The symbol itself is hand cut. This unpolished but strong statement piece captures the era quite well. Rough and as the Brits say - a bit gnarly with sharp edges and chipped paint - a wonderful example of how important such symbolism was back then. Not sure where this may have hung, maybe someday i will stumble across a photo.
