I've never heard of the union label one before since it's before my time, but this thread has been a great "aha!" moment for me.
In an earlier season of Boy Meets World corey and shawn are trying to organize a walkout of Mr. Turners class to avoid taking a test. Corey is trying to rally the class and starts marching and singing "Look fooor...the union laaabell". I can picture it in my head as clear as a bell but never really knew or cared enough to look into what that was. Now I know!

"Union Label" not really a public service announcement; it was an actual advertisement by the Union trying to make sure people buy their goods to keep them going.

Blasting caps PSA for sure. All it did was make we want to get ahold of one.
In what neighborhoods was stray blasting caps a problem? Just falling out of a dudes pocket onto the ballfield?

Learn something new every day.
So, any technical "non-profit" can run a PSA quota ad FOR FREE supporting causes or shifting social attitudes? We have seen it done with a religions: (including Mormon ads like this:
But what about political parties (no candidates) or 'causes' that can be construed to be political? Immigration, abortion, LBGTQ?

My mom used to sing the buckle up song to us when we were kids, but I never knew where it came from until now.

There were a few about how old refrigerators could suffocate kids.
Someone in Chicago run by the N. Wacker Drive address they list and see if they still have any pamphlets on how to make the fridge safe.
