Levante: Órgano de Falange Española Tradicionalista y de las J.O.N.S. Valencia, May 1939. Año I, no. 27. An exceptionally early issue of Levante, the newly established Falangist daily of Valencia, published only weeks after the end of the Spanish Civil War and the occupation of the city by Francoist forces. Created from the facilities of the suppressed Republican newspaper El Mercantil Valenciano, Levante became an important instrument of the new regime's political and cultural authority in Valencia. This issue presents a particularly striking example of the construction of National-Catholic identity in the immediate aftermath of Franco's victory. Its illustrated front page, headed “¡Dios te Salve, Reina de Valencia!”, is dominated by an image of the Virgen de los Desamparados, patroness of Valencia, while the Falangist yoke-and-arrows emblem is incorporated directly into the newspaper's masthead. The juxtaposition vividly demonstrates the fusion of Falangism, Catholic devotion, regional identity, and mass communication during the formative weeks of the Franco dictatorship.

SCW339. IMPETU. Revista de los Cadetes del Frente de Juventudes. Barcelona: Delegación Provincial del Frente de Juventudes, 1942. Nos. 2, 3 and 4. Three consecutive issues from the scarce, short-lived second series. Illustrated throughout.
A scarce consecutive group of three issues of Ímpetu, an illustrated Falangist youth magazine published by the Barcelona Provincial Delegation of the Frente de Juventudes, the Franco regime's principal organization for the political and social formation of Spanish youth. The second series appears to have been particularly short-lived, beginning with No. 1 in November 1941 and apparently ceasing during 1942. Combining dramatic illustration, stories, history, military subjects, political rhetoric and contemporary events, Ímpetu provides unusually vivid evidence of the visual and ideological education of young people during the formative years of the Franco dictatorship. Its contents promoted an ideal of Spanish youth founded upon discipline, masculinity, military virtue, Catholicism, sacrifice and loyalty to Falange and Franco. Contemporary references to the Blue Division further locate the publication within the international context of the Second World War and the regime's militant anti-Communism.

Two striking issues of Ímpetu, the illustrated periodical produced by the Barcelona organization of the Frente de Juventudes, the Franco regime's principal institution for the political formation and mobilization of Spanish youth. Published in 1945, issues #2 and 3 combine popular graphic culture with the ideological vocabulary of Francoism, presenting young readers with narratives and imagery centered upon heroism, discipline, masculinity, sacrifice, nationalism, military values and anti-Communism. Published in 1945, at the moment of the collapse of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, these issues are particularly valuable for studying Spanish Falangism at a moment of profound international transition. Franco's regime survived the destruction of its former Axis sympathizers and increasingly sought to reposition itself in the emerging postwar order, while Falangist institutions continued their efforts to shape Spanish youth.
Together, the two issues provide evidence not merely of official Francoist doctrine, but of how that doctrine was packaged, illustrated and made culturally attractive to a generation being raised under the dictatorship. Given the date of 1945 these magazines answer the question of what happens to a fascist youth culture when the European regimes to which it had been ideologically closest have just been defeated?
