The Joseph A. Labadie Collection—one of the foremost archives of anarchist materials in the world and located right here in Michigan—has just completed a project aimed at digitizing posters obtained over the past 100 years.
The posters cover topics including “Anarchism, Civil Liberties, Colonialism, Communism, Ecology, Labor, Pacifism, Sexual Freedom, Socialism, Women, and Youth/Student Protest.” There are a lot of interesting things in the archive, from posters against gentrification in San Francisco to anarchist gatherings in the 1980s. The collection is a great representation of anarchism’s rich visual culture and is interesting both as a source for historical curiosity and as an inspiration for those creating contemporary anarchist posters.
Unfortunately, while the site doesn’t allow us to download higher resolution versions, here’s a few posters that were interesting to us:
