The Liberty Bell Press is a publishing company out of Missouri founded by John A. Stormer, a Korean War veteran born in 1928. Starting in 1965 Stormer became a pastor and Christian educator. Stormer was involved in the Republican Party, particularly in the 1960s during Barry Goldwater’s presidential campaign. Stormer is one of the best selling right wing self publishers, selling millions of copies of his first book None Dare Call It Treason (1965) which depicted the US as losing the Cold War due to the communist sympathies of the elites in the country.

The post today contains images from Stormer’s second book The Death of a Nation (1968), which “links collectivism to the work of Antichrist and discussed signs of the End Times.”[1] The Liberty Bell Press still exists today and books can still be purchased.

The Mantooth Report was a self-published newspaper from Salem, Indiana, by Don Mantooth. The Mantooth Report is a right wing, conspiracy based newspaper. It could almost be considered a tabloid newspaper for extremism.

Don Mantooth, a WWII veteran, passed away in 2012 but ran for political office in Indiana for governor and representative.[1] Additionally he was the state chairman of the American Party, a nativist party that stressed limited government, individual rights and traditional values.[2][3]

It was hard to find much about Labor Today, a publication based out of Chicago that focused on union and labor issues. However, I thought I would share this image because I was born in Chicago in January 1985 and this was printed during the same month.
