City Limits Gazette # blue sky blue (May 1991), slightly dented

City Limits Gazette # zillion and six (May 1991), gentle vertical crease in middle

City Limits Gazette # hup, hup, hey! (July 1991), excellent condition, no creases

City Limits Gazette # dead porcupine icebox (Oct. 1991), excellent condition, no creases

State of Beings # 11. Georgia! (June 1992), slight and gentle crease on lower right corner. Given the color of the paper, I'm thinking this was a special printing not distributed with CLG as a bonus.

City Limits Gazette # Zizz (Mar. 1993), excellent condition, no creases

City Limits Gazette # Ecstatic static on automatic (Mar. 1993) No creases, but cover appears to have some small red watercolor(?) stains

None of the above issues of CLG include the State of Beings bonus comic.

CLG was normally folded before it was mailed to subscribers, so unfolded copies are quite unusual to find.

Jolene Working for You
For U.S. Congress, Democrat

Jolene Unsoeld served as the Congressperson for Washington State's 3rd District 1989-1995. Every now and then our paths cross at the grocery store, like last week, and I enjoy hearing her take on the political scene.

Don't know what the deal is with those brown spots. I am sure I picked this button up when it was new and pristine.

Buttons - Federal Campaign - 1960s

Hughes for Congress Republican
File Your Protest

OK, OK, I know this isn't a button. It's a nail file with a pun, but I am going to include it anyway. I picked this up at a booth at the Southwest Washington Fair in Washington State's 3rd Congressional District some time in the 1960s.
