1970190631970. Anti-WarVietnam War "NO MORE WAR". Designed and photographed by Terry and Dennis Newell 1970. Measures 35" × 16" on offset tan lithographic paper. This monochromatic anti-war poster illustrates three scenes of a man and woman in three stages of their lives. In the first photo a young girl innocently gifts a young boy flowers on a grassy field. The following image conveys the young girl and boy in their adulthood---dressed in typical 1970's attire---as the woman hands flowers to the man in great despair. As her partner leaves to fight in the war she is left on the field longing for his return. Yet in the last image she is left lying flowers atop his coffin wrapped in the American flag. The Vietnam anti-war movement from 1960-1970 was one of the most pervasive displays of opposition to the government policy in modern times as protests raged all over the country. As a result posters like these were just one of the mediums used to highlight anti-war narratives. Five inch tear on the top margin minorly affecting the title text. Signs of foxing and discoloration to due to age otherwise in very good condition. unknown

1971222041971. Counterculture Social Activism This striking 1971 protest poster was issued by the Vietnam Peace Parade Committee to promote national participation in Vietnam Moratorium Day observed on Wednesday October 13th 1971. Designed in bold agitprop style the poster combines militant typography with an urgent visual motif that reflects the escalating tone of the antiwar movement in the early 1970s. New York: Vietnam Peace Parade Committee 1971. Bold white typography with circular graphic emblem at top. <br /> <br /> Below the emblem centered white text declares: "we will observe / moratorium day / wed. october 13ᵗʰ / by" followed by a large white blank space left intentionally empty for local groups or individuals to fill in their planned action or statement of protest. The poster concludes with a defiant and unequivocal call: "no business as usual! / end the war now!" At the bottom the issuing organization is credited: Vietnam Peace Parade Committee 17 East 17th Street New York N.Y. 10003.<br /> <br /> The poster is a vivid artifact of the Vietnam Moratorium movement which began in October 1969 as a coordinated nationwide effort to halt everyday activities in protest of the war. Unlike previous marches and rallies Moratorium Day called for civic refusal and general strikes encouraging walkouts from schools workplaces and public institutions. By 1971 in the wake of the Cambodian incursion and the publication of the Pentagon Papers the antiwar movement had taken on a more urgent and radical tone. This poster's slogan-"no business as usual!"-reflects that shift asserting that complicity in everyday life was untenable while the U.S. continued to bomb and occupy Southeast Asia. As a piece of protest ephemera the poster is emblematic of the era's graphic culture of resistance: minimalist yet commanding visually direct yet ideologically expansive. Light handling wear otherwise very good. unknown
1970190661970. U.S. Army Engineer Company photo album early 1970s documents logistical operations base life and personnel composition at Oakland Army Base during the Vietnam War providing visual evidence of military transportation infrastructure and the integration of a diverse workforce within a key Pacific transit hub. The material records the functioning of an engineer unit responsible for vehicle maintenance cargo handling and operational readiness while also capturing the presence of African American servicemen and female personnel within the same working and ceremonial environments. It supports research into military logistics on the U.S. home front race and gender integration in the armed forces and the institutional processes that sustained overseas deployment during the Vietnam War.<br /> <br /> Album containing 369 photographs including 353 color and 16 black and white images most measuring approximately 5 x 3.5 inches compiled at Oakland Army Base and the adjacent Port of Oakland. The contents document heavy machinery and vehicle maintenance including bulldozers cranes transport trucks and military jeeps with numerous images showing mechanics engaged in repair work. Additional photographs depict combat training exercises including rifle instruction with M16 firearms alongside formal ceremonies in which soldiers of varied racial backgrounds and both genders receive promotions commendations and instruction from commanding officers. Several images show administrative office environments providing insight into the clerical and organizational functions supporting base operations. Group scenes include family-oriented gatherings and meals indicating the social dimension of service life within the base setting. Produced at a time when Oakland Army Base operated as a principal embarkation and return point for U.S. forces traveling to and from Vietnam and other locations in East Asia the album documents the domestic infrastructure underpinning overseas military engagement. The emphasis on machinery cargo movement and personnel readiness reflects the scale and complexity of logistical coordination required during the conflict. The visible diversity within the unit corresponds with broader transformations in the U.S. military following desegregation and evolving roles for women making the album relevant to studies of institutional change during the late stages of the Vietnam War. Light wear to album edges and corners photographs well-preserved with minor handling marks; overall very good. A substantial visual record of engineer operations and base life at a critical West Coast military installation during wartime. unknown
