Abstract
Posters are an interesting source for the study of the solidarity movement.The International Institute of Social History (IISH) preserves a collection
of some 300 Netherlands-Chile posters, the majority from the seventies. Many of these posters invite participation in the annual national (Amsterdam) and local manifestations on 11 September, the date of the coup.Some posters are very simple, hastily made to announce local actions or manifestations Others are made by professional artists and cartoonists. After refugees arrived, many posters were influenced by Chilean artistic styles, such as the tradition of political mural paintings.
