Banned when I was a kid:
Alochol and tobacco slogans
non-natural hair colors
spikes and studs (on jackets and armbands like Judas Priest used to wear)
tank tops
curse words, nudity, and lewd characters (such as someone giving 'the finger')
The 'stars and bars' flag was quietly discouraged but not banned yet.
Today its:

...pretty much the same.
