YIPPIES PROTEST BUTTON

  1 1/2" with lock pin - Made in the USA

EAT THE RICH!

Designed and manufactured in 1972 as an protest slogan. 

It was used at both the Republican Party Convention 

and the Democratic Party Convention by the Yippies!

It has also been used as a popular slogan against the

greedy who hold the average person down in order to make

huge amounts of money off of their labor. Fox buttons supplied 

these pinbacks to numerous organizations and unions to be used at 

demonstrations against all American Political Parties.

The slogan is still very popular in the current political climate.

From the collection of Larry Fox, "The Button Man" (Member A.P.I.C.)
