Abstract

The article offers information on how curators and archivists of the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace in Stanford, California have kept alive the interest of former U.S. President Herbert Hoover in collecting papers. The collection is estimated to contain over 100,000 posters, although the fragility of the aging paper makes the collection's systematic count as a whole impossible. The Hoover Institution received 4,000 pounds of posters from the New York Public Library in 1974.
