SUPER 8mm TRANSFER OF 1960's CND PROTEST MARCH IN LONDON

The CND symbol, shown here at the beginning of the video was created by the British designer Gerald Holtom.
He believed that the anti-nuclear movement needed a symbol to unite the cause of nuclear disarmament and explained that the three lines in a circle was to represent 'a human being in despair'.
The first public viewing of the symbol was during the fifty mile march from London's Trafalgar Square to the weapons factory at Aldermaston in 1958. Since then, the now familiar icon has become an international sign of peace, appearing in demonstrations and political marches around the world from Vietnam anti-war protests, at anti- apartheid marches, environmental causes and more recently the Iraqi wars.
CND otherwise known as the 'Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament' never registered the sign as a trademark,stating that it is 'a symbol of freedom and it is free for all'
