Abstract

Papers consist of two scrapbooks and one package of newspaper clippings. The clippings, many from Stampa Libera of New York (formerly Il Nuovo Mondo), relate chiefly to Italian fascism, World War II, and socialism. Some clippings relate to Filippo Turati, Italo Balbo, Errico Malatesta, Carlo Sforza, and Pietro Nenni. Also included are antifascist cartoons from the American press, postcard portraits of famous socialists, and photographs and articles on the Vienna Commune, the interim social-democratic government that ended with suppression of the worker uprising in Vienna in 1934.
