Archival research often relies heavily on provenance, or information concerning the origin of materials. But we don't know much about this undated poster advertising information about abortion, healthcare, and reproductive health.  It's written in italic script, and it probably came from a Reed student or the Reed campus, though we don't know that for sure. Between the 1940s, when calligraphy classes were first taught on campus, and the arrival of computers at Reed, calligraphy featured prominently on campus signage and communications.
