  • The Case for Academic Study of Postage Stamps Lincoln Cushing
    Vol. 6, No. 3, Spring 2009, 265-271 www.ncsu.edu/project/acontracorriente Review/Reseña Jack Child, Miniature Messages: The Semiotics and Politics of Latin American Postage Stamps. Durham: Duke University Press, 2008. Hiding in Plain Sight: The Case for Academic Study of Postage Stamps Lincoln Cushing Art Historian This book makes the case for the legitimate study of a medium that receives little academic attention—postage stamps. Child explores these precious objects on several levels. At the most abstract, he looks at these documents through the analytic tool of semiotics—the study of signs and the messages they contain. He then offers a broad philatelic and political history of Latin American stamps, and eventually narrows down to detailed Cushing 266 essays on the stamps from the Southern Cone, his region of expertise— Argentina, the Falklands/Malvinas, and territoriality on Antarctica. Child’s expertise in both philately and Latin American history make this book both informative and provocative. Given that stamps are high profile, internationally distributed official visual documents it is pretty obvious that they constitute a form of propaganda. This is a medium for countries to publish their story to the world, and in most cases the message—if there is one—is banal. However, often stamps charge into controversial topics, such as which country owns what piece of land, or whether the United States is an imperialistic presence in Viet Nam. These examples can take many visual forms, sometimes as subtle details such as choice of colors, typographic placement, or which clothing a head of state is shown wearing.

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2/88) Abstract This thesis investigates the production of a body of posters in Cuba by the Organisation in Solidarity with the Peoples of Asia, Africa and Latin America (OSPAAAL) between 1967 and 1972. OSPAAAL's posters have become one of Cuba's most popular forms of mass culture, reaching production levels of five million by the 1970s. Shipped to progressive bookstores and households across Europe and North America, OSPAAAL's posters vied for the attention of youth audiences sympathetic to the burgeoning anti-capitalist movements emerging around the world. Following their first production in 1967, OSPAAAL's posters adopted a new hybridised form that combined the internationalism of Western aesthetics such as Pop Art, Op Art, and Psychedelic Art, with Afro-Cuban symbols, references to Cuba's historical past.
