Special Order from YES Studio


I had fun working all day today on a special order from a super nice person at Youthful Expressions Studio. It is a school for artistic enrichment for children ages 7-14.

You can follow them on Twitter.

Want your own special buttons made? Email me at portablegraffiti@earthlink.net or visit Portable Graffiti and contact me from there.

Rock 'n' Roll is Forever...but these Rock 'n' Roll pins won't be in my shop forever


I've seen so many of these vintage rock and roll pins tucked away in people's "favorites" on Etsy. I was just going through stock and noticed the bags in the tubs are getting thinner. These buttons won't last forever. Today I sold one Anthrax that I had listed as the LAST ONE. But I also sold an REO Speedwagon that I thought I had more of. I don't. That was the last one, too. I do have other Anthrax pins in the shop.

Stop in sometime and browse. Over 800 buttons listed. But, many more not listed. So if you don't see your favorites, just ask me if I have it.

Stray Cat Strut Treasury


If you love red like I do you'll love this Etsy treasury called Stray Cat Strut designed by Space Age Love.

My Tiny English Stray Cats button was included in the treasury. Honestly I do not know how that button has not sold yet. It's one of my favorites. Maybe I am meant to keep it.

Check out the awesome pot holders at Space Age. I might get some myself. Nothing like a clean, new potholder.

Space Age also makes very nice aprons.

Let It Rock! Treasury


Traveling through the Etsy Treasuries tonight I ran across one of my buttons in this Treasury, called Let It Rock by In The Raw.

I sold another one of the vintage "I'm with the Band" buttons the other day. Not very many left.

University Of Arizona, Tucson : Saguaro You Today?






Off we went, Jess and I, to sell buttons beyond New York State. Here we are in Tucson, Arizona. There weren't any shows going on at the university, so we found a club willing to sponsor Portable Graffiti for donating a portion of the proceeds to their club. We set up our 20 foot tent on the main commons and sold there for about a week. It was lots of fun but not very profitable.

This was back when I used black and white film in my 35mm camera.

One button we designed then and copyrighted was Saguaro You Today?

Portable Graffiti, making buttons since 1979 and you can still buy the buttons on Zibbet.

Selling the few Saguaro You Today bumper stickers that are left. Get one HERE.
