 Biographical Note

Don Rice has always found interest in collecting radical publications, particularly as he progressed through a career in the print business. The materials in this collection include mailings from radical organizations that Rice subscribed to, as well as flyers and pamphlets that he would pick up at demonstrations or public locations. Don Rice printed a radical publication himself, entitled Schism. This publication sought to compile and print radical material from both liberals and conservatives. Some of the items in the collection were items Rice received to print in this magazine. He also printed Vanity Press (included in the collection), took part in Students for a Democratic Society and the Assembly of Unrepresented People, and worked in a campaign to keep John Ashbrook, a local politician, out of office. As of 2014, Don Rice continues to collect occasionally, describing materials he takes interest in as being "further left than the Democrats and further right than the Republicans."
