Dole Queues and Demons: British Election Posters from the Conservative Party Archive

by Stuart Ball

Bold amalgams of graphic design, psychology, and art, election posters have remained unsung--and sometimes even maligned--since their inception at the beginning of the twentieth century. Through a careful selection from among the more than seven hundred posters in the Bodleian Library's Conservative Party Archive, this lavishly illustrated volume charts the evolution of the election posters created by Britain's Conservative Party.
