I've cut into Eaton's button

Created for the Eaton's strike of 1984-1985. It calls on consumers to boycott the national chain in support of the retail workers on strike. Dennis McDermott, the head of the Canadian Labour Congress, cut his Eaton’s card on television to show support for the boycott.

A rectangular button that shows a cut-up Eaton's account card with the phrase: "I've cut into Eaton's". Has Allied Printing Trades Council union label, which indicates that it is union-made. There is the number '9' next to this label that represents the shop.

1984-1985
