PEACE 50 YEARS OF PROTEST by Barry Miles; PUBLISHER: Reader's Digest, Pleasantville; a 2008 copyright; 256 pages.

The peace sign is probably the most commonly used symbol of protest in the world. Instantly recognizable as the universal sign for peace, in 2008 it turned 50 years old. With accounts from around the world, this book tells the story of the enduring power of the line drawing that began life as the official sign for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). Tracing the roots of Gerald Holtom's design, it details the many ways the peace sign has been put to use, including politics, fashion, pop, film and marketing.

Contents include:


   1957-1960 Ban The Bomb - Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) is formed
   1960-1975 Stop The War - In the U.S. the Hippies adopt the symbol

Items paid by Paypal can only be mailed to the address shown on the Paypal payment.
I'm sorry if this is an inconvenience, but this is a Paypal rule, not me trying to be difficult.  If you wish to have the package sent to a different address, change the "ship to" before making payment.

I combine shipping whenever possible.  PAYPAL REQUIRES UNIQUE TRACKING NUMBERS FOR each PAYMENT.  If you buy a book, then make payment, then buy another book and make payment, I must ship each separately so we have two tracking numbers.  If you wish to have items combined to reduce shipping costs, request an invoice after you have made all your purchases.  Multiple Paypal payments means multiple packages--again, it's a Paypal rule, not me being difficult.

We are not set up for LOCAL pick-up.  We've tried it in the past and had too many "no shows".  Our schedules can be erratic, so please allow us to mail your package.

This is a non-smoking home.  Most of my items are antique or vintage and have been purchased at estate sales and auctions. I am not aware of how the item has been stored or used before I received it.  I do not purchase items with odors...whether from pets, smoking, dampness or just "old house".  

Packages mailed to Illinois addresses will be charged Illinois sales tax.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:  International shipping duties, import fees and/or charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or its shipping charges.  These type of charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office prior to buying/bidding to determine any additional costs.  I will not mark a lower value or an item as a "gift" on the custom form.
