Light wear and creasing along bottom edge with slight curl to a few corners; demonstration date hand-corrected in marker on masking tape and applied at center of poster with NJ contact number similarly corrected by hand; old tape stains verso; Very Good. Crudely-drawn poster for an October 12 1969 demonstration at the U.S. military base at Ft. Dix NJ. An army of civilians nearly 10000-strong made up primarily of young people and led by a contingent of 100 women marched from the G.I. Coffee House in Wrightstown toward Ft. Dix. The march began at noon with speakers from the Rainbow Coalition -- Black Panther Party the Young Lords Organization and the Young Patriots -- addressing the crowd. The group marched upon the base and made their way inside the eastern perimeter before being stopped by MP's with bayonets and tear gas. Because of the strong sympathy for the marchers among teh 32000 GI's stationed at Dix more than half the MP's were put on restriction the following day and in the coming days all 375 prisoners were either transfered or released from the stockades. A wonderful survival; we find no examples in the trade and none in OCLC. S.i. unknown books

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
197035425Berkeley: Berkeley Political Poster Workshop 1970. Original illustrated poster silkscreened in black on white repurposed computer listing paper with perforated tractor strips measuring ca.38cm x 56cm 15" x 22". A Fine copy / A. A simple powerful anti-war image by an uncredited Berkeley student. The image is reproduced from a 1968 AP photograph of the bodies of US Marines on Hill 689 in Khe Sanh South Vietnam. The poster "is an indirect invocation of the political order in the United States and for those who remember a reminder that both Lyndon Johnson in 1964 and Richard Nixon in 1968 won the presidency with promises of peace - which were then contradicted by their actions." Benson Thomas W. Posters for Peace: Visual Rhetoric and Civic Action. One of some 600 designs created by Berkeley student members of the Political Poster Workshop in 1970; on average fewer than 100 copies of each design were printed for distribution on and around campus.

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.

37398n. p. n. d. Ca 1965-1970. One printed in color to verso flag of South Vietnam; three 5 Dong "currency" leaflets printed in red-brown to verso. Remaining examples white paper printed in black with an illustration to the recto and text to verso. Printed on cheap paper lightly toned to some leaflets. Crisp and clean overall. A VG - VG set. Five different examples two in duplicates and one in triplicate. Nine leaflets total. Various sizes. 2-1/2" x 4-3/4" to 4-1/4" x 5-5/8" <br/><br/>A collection of 5 different examples of GVN propaganda leaflets two of which appear to have been issued by South Vietnam as part of their psyops rather than US military forces. Includes: - "Dong Bai": patriotic message printed over top of a South Vietnamese flag in dk yellow and red with text to verso warning of severe retribution for any who shoot down ARVN planes. No code number. - "Ky-Niem Chua Xot" ~ "Bitter Memory": half-tone photograph of a large smiling family to recto; text to verso explaining that the photo was found beside the body of a dead VC soldier and encouraging VC soldiers to defect or face the same fate. Code DV157AH301165. Two copies. - Urgent evacuation warning: illustration of soldiers dying on the ground during an air attack to recto; text to verso warning of an imminent and remorseless attack by ARVN forces on area VC troops and urging villagers to seek safety in ARVN-controlled areas. Code 121. Two copies. - "Khai Quang": two-panel illustration the first of two planes spraying herbicide/Agent Orange on a village and the second of the resulting swath of barren land afterward; text to verso explaining that the government is attempting to restore peace and protect food sources by destroying VC hiding places. Code SP-744. Possibly the earliest defoliation leaflet issued. - Five dong currency: parody of banknote printed to recto; text to verso is a safe conduct pass. Believed to be from the earlier high quality distribution that occurred in 1965-66. Although these "banknotes" were highly successful as safe conduct passes and slightly smaller than government currency they soon entered the economy and were eventually stopped due to the political repercussions of a foreign government dropping another country's defacto currency on its citizens. Three copies. Likely distributed by means other than an air drop though indubitably part of that campaign. Quite rare to find in this condition. unknown books
