Seeking anti-war propaganda

In conjunction with a course I am teaching on political and social
movements in the late sixties, the class is organizing an exhibition
in the college gallery. I would like to include some vivid Soviet
materials-- propaganda--as well as ephemera of some sort to
represent the dissident movement in USSR (samizdat of some sort,
perhaps?). Does anyone have anything apropriate in their
collections, especially anti-War-in-Vietnam posters, we could borrow?
I have a few of the more typical Lenin-Marx-Engels-Brezhnev, but
would like to include some juicy anti-Imperialist slogans. Or any
thoughts on where I might borrow such material? All materials will
be handled with utmost care by our gallery staff. (Show runs from
December until mid-February. Everything will be returned then.) Big
thanks. Please respond off list.
Related question-- is there any institution in the country actively
collecting Soviet ephemera/realia?... As no doubt most of us of a
certain age, I have drawers full of interesting Soviet-period
"things" and am wondering to whom I might donate them some day...
