Don’t forget your rubbers, 1987

What’s the best way to get the word out about condoms without saying “condoms”? By using slang. While an open reference to safe sex and its methods might have offended more conservative viewers, this poster from the State Health Department of Vermont used an informal term to reach those savvy enough to be in on the message.
