"Musicians against war" likely references the protests held by musicians during the Vietnam War. In the early 1960s, various folk singers used music to spread antiwar messages. Through antiwar rallies and concerts, musicians entertained the audiences in hopes of encouraging support against war. Some of the notable musicians participating in the protests include Phil Ochs, who performed at multiple rallies and concerts throughout the country, including a sold-out performance at Carnegie Hall. Although most of the songs are about antiwar, some songs express grief over the death of soldiers, and other songs express pain for those staying at home. The music protests against war helped pave the way for living in a better world and have peace.

In 1938, The Union Commerce Bank, originally known as the Union Bank of Commerce, was founded in Cleveland, Ohio. Post-World War II, the bank changed its name, added more services, and expanded its reach to serve the newly created suburbs, eventually numbering over 40 branches. In 1949, the bank moved into the Union Trust Building located in downtown Cleveland. The bank endured financial troubles in the 1960s-1970s and ultimately was acquired by a larger Columbus-based company, Huntington Bancshares, in 1983.

The Salvation Army is a well-known Christian church charitable organization established on July 02, 1865. Their primary purpose is to preach the Gospel and help the poor, the helpless, and the homeless. The organization offers food, shelter, night lodging, nurseries, rescue homes and maternity hospitals, and many more charitable services. In present day, they are most recognizable for thrift stores and Santa Claus bell ringers with red buckets.

The Salvation Army Home Service Fund was launched in the United States in 1919 to raise thirteen million dollars to continue its work. The Fund's purpose was to change the way of raising money on the streets to making personal requests in every city and town.

“Howdy” (short for “How do you do?”) is a greeting that can be traced back to England, c. 1712. It became significant in the Southern United States during the 19th century and was spread towards the Western United States by Civil War Veterans. Although “Howdy” is primarily used in the West, it is used and heard throughout the US today.

The phrase “totally illogical” likely references the catchphrase of Spock, a part-Vulcan, part-human character on the show Star Trek who often decries the actions of his human counterparts as “illogical.”

The TV show Star Trek was initially distributed by Desilu Studios when it premiered in 1966. Desilu underwent a merger with Paramount Pictures and was rebranded to Paramount Television in 1967, and Paramount has been the distributor of all Star Trek media in decades since and would be the copyright holders of any official merchandise since 1967.

Red heart surrounded by cream background.

The heart shaped symbol has been used to represent love for centuries. The shape may have originated in ancient North Africa, where the seedpod of the now-extinct plant silphium was heart-shaped and was commonly taken as a form of birth control. Another theory says the heart shape was drawn in the Middle Ages based on written descriptions of the human heart by Aristotle. In either case, the heart shape is now used around the globe, especially in red and pink colors, to express love.
