Ray Bonis Collection of Oliver North for U. S. Senate Campaign Materials

0.7 Linear Feet

The scope of the content is almost exclusively from 1994 excepting a few pages of the Washington Post from 1987, which cover the Iran-Contra affair. Much of the content was collected by Ray Bonis at the 1994 Republican State Convention of Virginia and includes a variety of newspapers, some magazines, and political flyers and pamphlets from 1994. Much of the political content is conservative, and it includes documents from family values groups, specific candidates, and general conservative organizations and cover political and social issues including health care reform, abortion, gun control, crime, and government spending. Most of the candidate specific material was pro-North and published by the "Oliver North for U.S. Senate Committee." Another large section includes anti-North publications which vehemently deride North's character and satirize his campaign. There is very little material directly supporting Robb. Other material includes flyers for primary and write-in candidates, sample ballots and voting guides, and some material from a local progressive organization encouraging volunteer work.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
