LSD buttons, circa late 1960s
Scope and Contents
These four buttons from the late 1960s promote the use of LSD, and drug use in general. An orange button reads, "Make love on LSD." Another button reads, "Make acid a sacrament," around an image with a tab of acid with light radiating from it, overing over a chalice that appears to be struck by electricity in multiple places. A blue button reads, "Acid" and then repeats the word "love" six times beneath it. A white button reads, "God is on a trip." The creators of these buttons are unknown.
