Peace Magnets by Josh Rubin
Leave it to a Vermonter to come up with an alternative to the ubiquitous yellow Support Our Troops car magnets. Bennington based Rob Sperber makes the magnets by hand simply with the goal of raising awareness-- "I'm not against the troops - I'm against senseless killing. A lot of people feel the same as I do."
The magnets are available in 6" and 8" diameters and a variety of colors and patterns for prices ranging from $3.50 - $6.00, all at vermontpeaceworks.org

Plus Minus Zero: 5th Collection
