    BUTTON
    1 1/4" with lock pin back - Made in the USA
    A UNIQUE COLLECTIBLE FROM
    THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE MOVEMENT
    Legal abortions were unavailable before Roe v. Wade in 1973.
    This button was used at Pro-Choice rallies during The late
    1980's and 1990's.
    Bill Baird,
    who founded
    Parent's Aid Society
    located in Hempstead,
    Long Island,
    New York was a leader in the fight against the anti choice
    movement.
    Larry Fox, "The Button Man",
    worked with
    Bill Baird
    and Parent's Aid Society to change
    the
    Birth Control
    laws in
    the State of New York.
    Many women, who
    were legally
    prohibited from controlling
    their own
    bodies, use items such as wire coat hangers to
    perform their own abortions. Many died or caused
    permanent damage to their internal organs.
    SADLY...THE FIGHT HAS NOT
    ENDED
