Hobo Day Buttons - Information and Availabity

[ButtonBunny]

I have been accumulating Hobo Day Buttons over the past few years.
I was not able to locate a source that lists all buttons produced.
So in the interest of learning have to design a web site and making such a listing available, I have posted a web site for SDSU Hobo Day Buttons.
If interested click on: www.hobodaybutton.webs.com.

Hope it may serve as an informational source as well as a means to trade between collectors.
Interested in any reaction.

Wow. I've got to say, that's a pretty cool collection you've got there.

Thanks for posting!

Looking through these buttons and I like the '70-'74 ones the best. They just made me chuckle. I'm almost afraid to describe what's happening on the '70 button, though.

My overall fave is '74. Just love the Jackrabbit sub for some reason.

I had a sentence all written out about how I didn't like how in '10, they got away from the hobo image....then I went back and looked at it again....clever.

Last time I was there (fall) Urban Archaeology, which is on Phillips Ave in downtown Sioux Falls, had some vintage Hobo Day buttons in their display case. Might be worth checking out.

1964 is pretty funny. Alot of those would probably make the news if they were released today. How times change.

The Sioux smell de feet, I for one find this very incorrect politically,but yet this button has survived several moves. What is wrong with me? Times have changed without a doubt.

I bought the one they had from 1969. That was the only one I saw in the case. Someone else must have snatched up others if they were there.
