The New York Public Library (NYPL) has digitized 2 separate collections containing posters from the Russian Civil War, titled, Posters of the Russian Civil War, 1918-1922. The first collection was donated by Harold Manchester Flemming, a one-time Christian Science Monitor correspondent; and the other by Paul S. Hall and Dorothy F. Hall, containing both Russian and Ukrainian posters from this era. An additional donation of posters to the NYPL will be digitized in the near future, and uploaded to the site.
The total digitized collection contains 213 posters, placards, and broadsides, comprising one of the largest such collections in North America.
