| Title | Movies: A Jew Monopoly |
| Description | Movies: A Jew Monopoly was just one of many pieces of anti-Jewish propaganda written and published by Robert Edward Edmondson for his "American Vigilante Bulletins" series. Edmondson purported to be providing "suppressed records of fact and authority, showing that Communism and Socialism are Jewish in origin and direction". To that end, this particular issue seeks to illustrate how the motion picture industry at the time was Jewish-controlled, and "dominated by aliens who wreck bodies and souls in a mad lust for destructive power over Gentiles". Edmondson lists the names of Jewish entertainers, producers, writers, and major studio executives of the era. 14 x 17 in. |
