I have "Don't But Lettuce" and "Don't Buy Grapes" back.from the old supporting the UFW days, and mixed in with them was this gem:. "Nixon Eats Lettuce"! My mom used to run the Democratic booth at the county fairs and they must date from back then.

Gracias and a to your Mom for being there for the UAW back in the Day..
