Guide to the Daily Worker and Daily World Photographs Collection, 1920-2001

Title: Guide to the Daily Worker and Daily World Photographs Collection, 1920-2001

The official organ of the Communist Party, USA, the Daily Worker's editorial positions reflected the policies of the Communist Party. At the same time the paper also attempted to speak to the broad left-wing community in the United States that included labor, civil rights, and peace activists, with stories covering a wide range of events, organizations and individuals in the United States and around the world. As a daily newspaper, it covered the major stories of the twentieth century. However, the paper always placed an emphasis on radical social movements, social and economic conditions particularly in working class and minority communities, poverty, labor struggles, racial discrimination, right wing extremism with an emphasis on fascist and Nazi movements, and of course the Soviet Union and the world-wide Communist movement. The paper has had a succession of names and has been published in varying frequences between daily to weekly over the course of its existence. In 2010 it ceased print publication and became an electronic, online-only, weekly publication titled the People's World. The bulk of the collection consists of printed photographic images produced through a variety of processes, collected by the photography editors of the Daily Worker and its successor newspapers as a means of maintaining an organized collection of images for use in publication. Images of many important people, groups and events associated with the CPUSA and the American Left are present in the collection, as well as images of a wide variety of people, subjects and events not explicitly linked with the CPUSA or Left politics.

Johnson, Gary,. Gary Johnson Collection, 1940-2003.

Title: Gary Johnson Collection, 1940-2003.

The Gary Johnson Collection consists of six series: concert posters, 200 Motels Herb Cohen files, Zola Taylor, publications and press releases, the Beatles, flyers and handbills, and individual items related to Woody Guthrie, Nirvana, Elvis Presley, The Ramones, Elliot Smith, and Spinal Tap. The collection includes audio recordings, chord charts, clippings, financial and legal documents, 8mm film, flyers, handbills, magazines, manuscripts, posters, sheet music, and teletypes. The material spans 1940 to 2003, with bulk dates of 1965-1989. The collection provides extensive documentation on the promotion of regional rock and roll acts performing in the midwest and northwest of the United States from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s, as well as that of the punk and New Wave scene in Los Angeles in the 1980s. The production and release of the 1971 film 200 Motels is also well documented in the collection through Herb Cohen's files. There is also a nice selection of Beatles' 8mm films sold in the 1970s. Seen in a broader context, the collection provides insights to how regional acts were promoted and the venues they played, and serves as a reference to performers that played during that era. The collection also provides insights into the management side of the filmmaking process, the arrangement of live musical performance, the commercial viability of a band after they have disbanded, and reports of celebrity deaths by the press.
