It was dated around early to mid 50's. It was more of a tri-fold pamphlet. With the "Ground Zero" clearly mark. And evacuation routes and where to meet. Very Cool!!! Still have it today. I had found it....maybe 1987?? I also found a Superman photo from that same era. With the "Thanks for watching" autograph by George Reeves. EVEN COOLER!!!!

Only in Seattle and San Fransico will you find such tepid, childish remarks. It really is striking.

But I do agree with Chloe that many who call themselves liberals are actually communists. A true liberal loves America and capitalism and individual LIBERTY (hence the word liberal). But if they are against corporations etc., that's not a liberal, that's a communist. --Brian (a moderate liberal) Actually bin Laden would be a fascist, not a communist…he’s a right wing extremist not a left wing extremist.

Make no mistake, Fidel (commie), Bin Laden (commie/muslim), and Saddam (commie/dictator) lunched together and they hate America, just like the Liberals do.

You can still see fallout shelter signs all over downtown. The one I've been inside of (I believe it's Xplore Fitness) certainly doesn't have a fallout shelter anymore. But I wonder if any of the shelters are still in working order. Great find.
