ot of five vintage anti‑smoking pinback buttons, each from national and regional public‑health campaigns of the late 1970s–1990s. These small pins were distributed in schools, workplaces, and community events as part of early smoking‑prevention outreach.
Included in this lot:
“Snuff Out Dragon Breath” — green/yellow design featuring a cartoon dragon, part of a youth‑focused anti‑smoking message encouraging kids to avoid “dragon breath” caused by cigarettes.
Two red “Thanks for Not Smoking” buttons — produced by the American Cancer Society, reflecting one of their long‑running courtesy‑based campaigns promoting smoke‑free shared spaces.
“Smoking Stinks” — another ACS message aimed at younger audiences, using simple, direct language common in 1980s–90s school programs.
“Fresh Air Fund – NYC” — a button from the long‑established New York City nonprofit that provides outdoor summer experiences for children; this design reflects their clean‑air, healthy‑living messaging.
Condition: All five pins show light surface wear consistent with age. Pinbacks are intact and functional. Colors and graphics remain clear.
A good mixed lot for collectors of public‑health ephemera, American Cancer Society materials, youth anti‑smoking campaigns, or 1980s–90s nonprofit outreach.
