'Curb The Clap' Bumper Sticker Campaign Launch

Canadian actor Donald Sutherland, wearing a grey raincoat, and his wife, Canadian actress Shirley Douglas, who wears a black coat, attend the launch of the 'Curb the Clap' bumper sticker campaign, in Los Angeles, California, December 1970. The campaign was launched by Eric Burdon to raise awareness of what Burdon referred to as 'the number-one sickness in the record business today - VD' but was also believed to be a thinly veiled attack on MGM Records president Mike Curb following Curb's announcement that he was dropping eighteen acts from his roster due to their music advocating drug use.
