The Oh Henry! candy bar is made with peanuts, caramel, and chocolate and was introduced by the Williamson Candy Company in 1920. It is mistakenly believed to be named after the famous baseball player Hank Aaron. Oh Henry! is actually named for a young man named Henry who regularly visited the Williamson Candy Store.  As the story goes, Henry was friendly with the female clerks who were worked there, and Mr. Williamson frequently overheard the young ladies saying, “Oh, Henry.” Mr. Williamson thought it was a good name for a candy bar and trademarked the name.

FedEx, once known as Federal Express, is a global transportation and courier delivery service based in the United States. Federal Express was founded in 1971 by Frederick Smith, as a viable alternative to the United States Postal Service - its first delivery used 14 planes and delivered a mere 186 packages. Today, the company ships thousands of packages and parcels worldwide every day by plane, train, and truck. In the 1970s, one of Federal Express' most recognizable advertising slogans was "Don't Panic!" Federal Express prided itself on getting packages to their destination in a timely and stress-free manner, allowing their customers a panic-free experience.

Ah, vintage sexism! Balls Candy used the slogan "You Need Balls To Conquer The World" and other variations to say, "These days, women have finally come into their own – with pants and permanents, muscles and makeup. But there still are a couple of things we can’t lay claim to right?" Balls Candy was trademarked in 1977, and they were sour candy balls that said women should "suck on some" for some encouragement. They ran this campaign through 1985.

This button was issued in 1918 to War Savings Service members and worn to demonstrate patriotism and participation on the home front. Members pledged to save money where possible, to buy war savings stamps and to recruit other members to make the same pledge. Each member was given one of these buttons to advertise their commitment. Similar buttons with stars on them were given out to members based on how many new members they recruited. The buttons were meant to encourage sacrifice for the war effort.
