1972WRCAM55575Various places in Vietnam 1972. 145 photographs all but thirteen in color most approximately 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches. Majority of photographs mounted on black paper stock with non-archival adhesive tape some photos retain remnants of tape at corners. Some images a bit faded but generally in very good condition. A tremendous collection of photographs depicting the personal life and military service of an unidentified African-American soldier with the last name "Williams" serving in Vietnam during the war and with numerous family photographs at home. The majority of the photographs are undated but those that are dated place the collection roughly between 1968 and 1972. Other identifying characteristics in the photographs indicate that the soldier was likely part of the United States Air Force 93rd Security Police Squadron which provided security and air base defense during the Vietnam War. There is a photograph of Williams leaning against the sign for the 93rd SPS dormitory. <br> <br> Notable in the sixty or more photographs from the soldier's time in Vietnam are images from an unidentified American Air Force base depicting soldiers in the barracks a mess hall and fraternization among soldiers; additional photographs show a heavily-armed Williams manning a bunker holding an EBONY magazine posing with a South Vietnamese soldier in an urban setting and staring strikingly at the camera wearing machine gun ammunition and a hand grenade. A series of thirteen images were taken at "Le Van Loc" a popular Vietnamese night club located on the Tan Son Nhut Air Base near Saigon indicating Williams may have been stationed at or near that base. Personal photographs show individuals of varying ages presumably family members who appear alone or in groups and at times are photographed with Williams. Several of these photographs feature children presumably Williams' at home and at an Elmhurst School function. Williams seems to have been especially proud of his motorcycle as it features in a few shots. <br> <br> A collection of both service and family photographs capturing a young African- American serviceman during the Vietnam War. unknown books

197247693N.p.: Artists' and Writers' Protest / Colorcraft Inc 1972. First Edition. Original photographic poster offset printed in colors on white stock measuring 96.5cm x 63.5cm ca.38" x 25". Some minor handling trivial wear to extremities else very Near Fine / A unbacked. One of the most gruesome and effective pieces of propaganda to emerge during the Vietnam War reproducing a photograph taken during the My Lai Massacre by U.S. Army photographer Sgt. Ronald L. Haeberle. This and other iconic photos were taken by Haeberle on March 16 1968 using his personal camera while assigned to follow Charlie Company into My Lai. Unlike the monochrome images which he returned to the Army shot with a standard-issue Army camera the color images he shot with his personal camera were brought back to the States and sold to Life magazine after Haeberle was honorably discharged. The photos were printed in the December 5 1969 issue of Life offering Americans a harrowing glimpse into some of the attrocities being committed overseas; his caption beneath this image read: "Most were women and babies. It looked as if they tried to get away." The poster was designed by members of the Art Workers Coalition and initially released in 1969 using the identical image with the overlaid text reading: "Q: And babies A: And babies." This version published four years later intentionally subverts Richard Nixon's campaign slogan "Four More Years" forcing Americans to ask whether or not they wanted Nixon for another term and by extention another four years embroiled in foreign conflict.
