I've been talking with my local PBS QTV station about using some of my button's for a upcoming Ken Burns Vietnam War Documentary, I don't know much at this point in time but I am thrilled to think some of my collection could be used in any way in a Ken Burns film, I will be sure to give a update should this happen.
Peace

Thanks Thomas I would love to have any small part of one of his films,
99% of the button's shown are in posts and is 1/4? of the Vietnam button's I have but I'm still working on display boxes (for years now lol)
Aw crap what now guess I'll turn on the boob tube
Death by boob tube ?!!!!!! I think my feelings about that War are just as strong today as back then.
I try to watch something I might learn from as the News is just a downer, I feel the same way I get just as angry or sad today, Now if I could just escape the same way we might have then.
& Thanks for the love(s) n comments vetraio50, blunderbuss2, bobby725 & brunswick
Hi PP: Would you be interested in doing an interview on your collection for CollectorsWeekly? If so, shoot me an email at hunter@collectorsweekly.com. :)
congratulations! that is an honor as his documentaries are wonderful! i had the pleasure of meeting Ken Burns a few years ago at my mother's 70th birthday party.
That might be fun Hunter thanks I will write.
Thank You ho2 yeah I like his work too I've been hooked from his Baseball Doc to date, Sounds like a nice party he seems nice but I doubt i'll have that pleasure as these would play a very small part in his new Doc.
Thanks for the love(s) n comments Caperkid, fortapache, Hunter & ho2cultcha
Talked to PBS today and they will be using some of these, we need to work out a few details and sign release forms n such ;D
Told ya', yer famous. :P
yep my 3.2 seconds of fame coming up
Thanks for the love(s) n comment SpiritBear & roddyq much appreciated.
Thank you Mr. valentino for the love and nice comment, when it rains it pours eh I'm excited about both as not much happens here in the north woods lol
I found one of what I think you will find interesting, but maybe you can tell me if you know it's vintage or collectible fron this description....
It's a pin almost the size of a quarter, with a white face and black writing that says..
Against All Authority...across the top and underneath that is a symbol of what looks like three capital A's with one line through them.
I'm willing to post it, I just know nothing at all about these things and thought you may tell me if it's worthy of a post? They are cool items, just not exactly my thing. And I collect too much junk as is....lol
Hi Karen, It sounds like you have a 1990s hardcore punk band button there, The top link here will likely give the most info but thought I would send this page as it shows the -AAA- as well, I know what your saying there about collecting too much junk I start to branch out now and then until I catch myself, there's just a lot of cool stuff out there then we see even more here.
Worthy of a post? post what ya like like what ya post I always say lol
Hope the link helps and thanks for the comment.

UPDATE Ken Burns PBS I fear the deal may well be off, I missed there last call almost two weeks ago the only message was they would try again last week however I haven't heard from them and my emails have gone unanswered However I did learn the burns Vietnam War Documentary will be on air this September on PBS and I'm sure it will be a great film.
