Description:
Brookline, MA: Pan-African Liberation Committee, [c.1971-74]. Poster. Offset lithograph, 22" x 16"; printed in two colors on coated white poster stock. Vertical and horizontal lines from folding, probably as issued, else minimal wear, Near Fine (A-). Faint pencil annotation by a previous owner to verso (see note below). The main image is a portrait of a female Angolan freedom fighter with a rifle slung over her right shoulder, clutching a baby to her chest; the photo credit is to "B. Adjali." The Pan-African Liberation Committee was a Harvard-based activist group founded by students; it was active from early 1971 through 1974. The PALC spearheaded a campaign to force Harvard University to divest itself of all its investments in Gulf Oil stock, citing the company's exploitation of workers and natural resources and its support of the Portuguese colonial regime in Angola. The PALC staged major anti-Gulf actions on the Harvard campus in both 1972 and 1973; this poster could plausibly have accompanied…

Description:
[Berlin: 1848]: Vereins Buchdruckerei. Broadside, 27cm x 20cm (ca 10-3/4" x 8"). Printed in blackletter on white wove stock. Slightly toned, with old vertical and horizontal fold-lines; creased at margins; Very Good. Satirical broadside in the form of a fictional speech by King Friedrich Wilhelm IV, in which he (ironically) expresses support for the demands made by liberal parliamentarians at the May 18th Parliamentary Assembly in Frankfurt-am-Main. These included expanded rights for the underprivileged classes (including, most importantly, universal male suffrage); attenuation of executive power; the election of a permanent German parliament, and monetary reforms including a unified German currency. The great wave of liberal revolt that washed over the European Continent in 1848 proved short-lived; by 1851, most of the newly-established liberal régimes had been quashed by reactionary movements, with radical leaders either imprisoned, murdered, or driven into exile. Out of this crucible would arise…
