"A denunciation of the postwar strike wave by a right-wing author, who asserts that the strikes, under communist instigation, are serving as dress rehearsals for violent revolution.

First Edition. Handbill, 8-1/2" x 7" (ca 22cm x 18cm). Printed from typescript, one-side only on white paper. Mild evidence of use; Near Fine. Presumably self-published handbill by an anonymous "Nashville Woman," arguing for the innocence of segregationist gadfly John Kasper (who served an eight month sentence for conspiracy in 1957) and suggesting that space ships full of "little green men" [i.e. communists] were taking over city halls, police departments and state houses throughout the South, bringing with them an alien ideology of racial integration. "Yes, friends, 'beware', for the little green men have landed and we can most assuredly point them out. All white citizens must join hands in this mighty crusade for freedom." An illustrative relic of the tiny intersection of Sputnik fever and white supremacy; undated but given the repeated references to Kasper and to "satellite news," 1957 seems a safe bet.…

Light wear to extremities, a few tiny tears to left edge of rear wrapper, with a few faint creases to rear wrapper and a few terminal leaves; Very Good+. A sequel to the author's 1933 pamphlet Facing the Facts, "an exposé of the Cahilla, the secret Jewish world government" (Singerman 0277). In addition to authoring several anti-Semitic books and pamphlets, Hadley helped found The Paul Revere's, a nationalist organization largely comprised of the wealthy and well-bred whose goal was to promote Americanism and fight Communism.

Broadside, 18-1/2" x 9". Printed recto-only on newsprint. Text in single column beneath cartoon graphic signed "Doc Rankin". Single horizontal fold; paper slightly toned and eroded at margins (not approaching text); complete and Good. Right-wing broadside attacking Simon Gerson, who had recently been appointed Assistant to Manhattan Borough President Stanley Isaacs. Gerson (1909-2004) was the first openly Communist politician to hold an appointed office in New York; despite vicious attacks such as this from various right-wing groups he succeeded in holding on to his post for three years. Following WW2 (in which he served honorably), Gerson returned to politics, once again becoming embroiled in controversy when the Tammany machine blocked his appointment to fill deceased communist City Councilman Pete Cacchione's seat. The graphic, reproduced from the Brooklyn "Daily Eagle", shows Gerson conducting city business while a placid Josef Stalin oversees his work from the shadows. The drawing is signed by Doc Rankin, a freelance editorial cartoonist who, in addition to his long service on the Eagle, is widely believed to have been the real-life figure behind the anonymous "Mr. Prolific," one of the most-published illustrators of pornographic "Tijuana Bibles" in the 30s and 40s.…
