Welcome to The Scarlet Menace the home of the Cold War Veteran's Association and your source for Propaganda Art. If you're nostalgic for the cold war, collecting dead dictator chic, looking for tchotchkes of tragedy, or redoing your revolutionary headquarters and sweeping away old pests, or looking to make a political statement, look no further. Cold War Kitsch is hot! It's collectible, wearable, and harkens back to a time when good guys were good and bad guys, well, were really really bad.
Each section below contains many different images on many different products, and new products are added almost every week. New sections include 2008 Calendars, Anti-War and Sisterhood Is Powerful. If you have requests--for new designs, for an existing design to be applied to a different Cafe Press product--or comments, feel free to write us at scarletmenace@gmail.com.
I've ordered many of my own products and I'm consistently impressed with CafePress's quality and service. Thanks for your patronage. --Comrade Ish
