Scan: The Billboard 1931-12-19

At Ontario Pinfest I was gifted a box of old billboard magazines, from Mike Hanley of Church of the silver ball. They were fairly brittle and quite large, making them a formidable challenge, but a preservationist friend was able to take on this challenge and here is the first issue of that batch. This one is in 300 dpi, but the future ones will apparently be 600 DPI. thank you to F-T-BScans for the scan.

The Billboard December 19th 1931

 

I requested the final few pages of the magazine get rescanned at 600 dpi, and those pages are here. Those are the few coin-op pages, but this section of the magazine will quickly grow in later issues.

This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific attempts to eliminate trans people from society. Trans people have always existed, in every society, but the administration has embraced a moral panic, declared a war against reality, and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist. This includes making their healthcare illegal, censoring books and school curriculum from university level down to elementary school, and stoking the constant terrorist bomb and death threats against trans lives and institutions that don't also purge trans people.

This blog stands in solidarity with all of the youth who are being terrorized by a fascist president who has declared them to be threats that must be eliminated.

The USA is disappearing random brown people off the streets via unidentified masked men and shipping them off to notorious foreign prisons, all with no due process. Solidarity for all who are in the gaze of this American Nazism terror campaign against its own citizens.
