The Draft Resistance sold its Red Flag, but didn’t make one hell of a big profit. $5 to be exact. Maybe people thought it was contaminated by its previous owner.

Incidentally, there was a bad typo in the article offering the flag for sale [[https://www.fifthestate.org/archive/37-september-1-15-1967/red-flag-sale/][(FE #37, 1–15, 1967)]]. The story read “the left join the right in stamping that dirty visionist (sic) flag.” The word should have been revisionist. Big deal.
