Frodo Lives & Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost 1.25” Buttons Hobbits Wizards

Description: FRODO LIVES! And NOT ALL THOSE WHO WANDER ARE LOST Lord of the Rings 60’s Counterculture Slogans Repro Buttons A pair of 1.25” pinback buttons based on 60’s counterculture slogans: Frodo Lives and Not All Those Who Wander Are lost. Both are from J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy series The Lord of the Rings. "Frodo Lives!" was a popular counterculture slogan in the 1960s and 1970s, referring to the character Frodo Baggins from J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy series The Lord of the Rings, commonly associated with the hippie movement. Some say it related to Frodo’s departure for the Gray Havens at the end of the novel; other contend that it is the realization that the conclusion of Frodo’s mission has not ended in his death. The phrase was used frequently in graffiti, buttons, bumper-stickers, T-shirts, and other materials. While no longer as pervasive as it once was, the term continues to appear in newspaper articles and popular culture related to Tolkien's stories. ‘Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost’ is from a song in The Fellowship of the Ring: “All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost.” In contemporary times, the phrase is often interpreted that just because one does not settle down, does not necessarily mean you are without purpose. A person who travels may be seeking nothing more than the pleasure of the next horizon. Wear these buttons while singing down the dells, while preparing second breakfast, or while going on walkabout.
