Content Description

This collection contains materials related to political campaigns and movements from the 1890s to the 2010s. Much of the collection includes candidate-specific materials, such as bumper stickers, newsletters, and posters. It also includes party publications, such as official platforms and handbooks; literature published by interest group organizations, such as labor unions or the League of Women Voters; and government publications. Most materials relate to major parties, but the collection does include items published by third parties and independent candidates. Materials are primarily related to Montana local and state elections and many of the twentieth century’s national elections. Issues raised include: labor rights; women’s suffrage and political equality; the environment; consumer rights; the New Deal; communism; taxes; health care; and foreign policy. Materials cover a wide range of events, including World War I and World War II, the Cold War, and the 1972 Montana Constitutional Convention. Materials represent dozens of political figures, with particular emphasis on Montanans such as Lee Metcalf, Arnold Olsen, Dick Shoup, Pat Williams, Max Baucus, and others.

Administrative Information

Arrangement

This collection has been organized chronologically; materials from the same year are organized first by election type, then by party affiliation, and finally by candidate. Large posters are arranged chronologically in three oversized folders.

Custodial History

This is an artificial collection created by combining materials from various collections and sources. It includes duplicates removed from other collections and mailers received by Archives and Special Collections.

Future Additions

Materials may be periodically added to this collection.

Processing Note

This is an artificial collection and arrangement was entirely imposed by the processor. Materials have been described at the item level but foldered together by year. In 2023, the campaign buttons, matchbooks, and other small campaign related materials were removed from folders and placed into trays.
