Would you know where the images on this site come from? Some of the posters I have seen elsewhere, but some appear only here.

At least that is what I heard on multiple occasions from a variety of sources. It was printed by the Fascist government for the public domain. Just my 2 cents. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Something like the "lavorare e combattere" image expresses it well. Even better would be something that shows how the new society shapes the individual-for example by joining the military. The other thing I would need (besides copyright clearance) would be a high resolution image - something that could go into a print publication. With other images, I have been able to find candidates online, and then contact the library or museum for a publication quality version.

I have been looking for Italian propaganda posters for a book I am preparing to send to press, and I can confirm that such materials are indeed hard to find (the University of Wisconsin library has some in its special collections page). Would anyone know how I could find a higher resolution copy of some of these posters? As a professional historian, let me thank you for this wonderfully informative site!
