About
THIS RESOURCE KIT
A long overdue update from the previous edition, this kit contains a lot of ready-to-print button sheets, especially in the 2.25 to 2.375 inch range, message signs that just need correct notices for your committee/campaign/organization, a more accurate set of vector images for the Classical Statue Logo, the Hat variant, clip art, and more. Color and typeface specifications are the most current Traditional Libertarian Branding specifications from Libertarian Statue Press. It has nearly 500 files for you to use in your efforts to promote the Libertarian Party, its message, and its candidates.
LIBERTARIAN STATUE PRESS
An effort to push Libertarian Party branding back to where it belongs, the goal is to create and encourage the production of traditionally branded Libertarian Party materials. You can visit
libertarianstatue.com to see our current branding specifications, download the Classical Statue Logo in multiple formats, and visit our online store.
SIGNS OF TEXAS LIBERTY PAC
Signs of Texas Liberty started in 2005 and printed its first candidate sign in 2006.
The idea for a standard sign template came from the Virginia's Economy of Scale Project at the turn of the millennium. While we are not using that specific template, we have used the underlying concept: a consistent template that draws attention to the party as much as the candidate. A template designed to maximize cumulative recognition, even if each sighting is a different candidate or message.
Unlike that effort, we have persisted and continued to produce signs. While we have made some refinements to our template over the years, we hope that the current signs are recognizably similar to our James Werner for Governor sign in 2006. While modestly funded, we have provided more than 3500 signs for multiple candidates and issues since 2006. Obviously, with improved fundraising we could do a lot more.
SIGNS OF FREEDOM
Signs of Freedom is a currently unregistered 527 that is focused on creating message signs and similar items using the CSLSide sign template with less regulatory overhead than a political action committee.
CLASSICAL STATUE LOGO
The Classical Statue Logo was created sometime in the late 1970s by Dick Axtell of Keyes Art Service and reportedly first used by the Arizona LP. It was adopted by the Libertarian National Committee in May 1980, was immediately adopted party-wide, and remains in use.
