Contact seller5-star sellerHandbill. Two 8.5x11 inch handbills, horizontal fold crease, otherwise very good; the second handbill has a penciled note on the blank verso stating that it was received from Sanctuary. Sanctuary was the East Coast operative of the American Vigilant Intelligence Federation and founded the American Christian Defenders in 1934. He… worked for a time as Montpelier?s city engineer while organizing anti-Semitic and anti-labor meetings in New England. A supporter of Hitler, during World War II he was one of the 33 right-wing activists tried for sedition. The first handbill here offers selections from his book "Tearing away the veils," while the second is a reprint of a Moscow newspaper that shows Soviet and American leaders in what M.I. Kalinin called "An era of fruitful cooperation.".
