Measure the Woman Vote for Phyllis" Tape Measure Self Retracting Vintage 1970s
This interesting woman successfully campaigned against the ERA in the 1970's.  I just went down a rabbit hole reading about her and her impact.  An interesting character you might say! Own a peice of real history.  Also,  the tape measure still works! 😂
Phyllis Schlafly, the prominent conservative anti-feminist who spearheaded the campaign to defeat the ERA. The clash between Schlafly and the “women’s libbers,” as she called them, forever altered the political landscape of America. It not only foreshadowed the conservative ascendance of the 1980s, but also directly challenged the legal groundwork and cultural legacy of the feminist movement "What I am defending is the real rights of women," Schlafly said at the time. "A woman should have the right to be in the home as a wife and mother."
