Nancy's Buttons

Back in the early 80's, when I was in college, I attending the occasional convention. A group of us went down to Delaware and found Nancy and her button booth. In addition to her catalogue, we had custom buttons made up.

Fast forward to a year or so ago and I came across the 20+ year old printed copy of her catalogue I had brought home. I was curious and did an Internet search to see if she was still in business but did not find anything.

So I was surprised when I tried recently and found this. It's an expanded button/bumper sticker catalogue, with thousands of pithy and humorous choices.

Guns, 1st and 2nd amendments, insanity. The funny thing is that a local bookstore near my house still has a cache of her buttons that are about 15 years old. Every once in a while I buy one out of the bins.

BTW, every time you refresh the page, it changes the random slogan.

A few I found funny.
