Propaganda-o-Rama
I'm constantly amazed by the sort of primary documents that appear on the web. Lots of good stuff comes from archives that go on-line, but some of it just appears thanks to generous history buffs of one ilk or another. In the spirit of Rob MacDougall's"Things Illustrated" post below, a great example is Maopost.com which has a simply fabulous collection of Chinese propaganda posters. They don't sell 'em, they just scan 'em & share 'em. I like that.
