Where it all started

These items are more than collectibles—they are milestones in a political movement that united millions.

Friend, The Bernie Sanders Revolution began in 1981, when Bernie was elected Mayor of Burlington, Vermont by a margin of 10 votes. Let us all continue the work in 2025. To support the Sanders Institute, a progressive think tank and educational organization that will play a pivotal role moving forward, we are auctioning off rare political memorabilia from Bernie Sanders' transformative campaigns, going all the way back to Bernie's campaign for Mayor of Burlington, VT: These items are more than collectibles—they are milestones in a political movement that united millions. Proceeds from the auction directly support the work of the Sanders Institute. Instead of looking backward at the movement, we're restlessly moving forward to take on the challenges our country faces in the here and now so that we can build the country that so many people fought for in these campaigns. Other items include: SNL cue cards from Bernie Sanders and Larry David's appearances on Saturday Night Live. "Fight the Power" rally poster, autographed by Bernie Sanders, Chuck D of Public Enemy, Sarah Silverman, and Dick Van Dyke. Red Hot Chili Peppers campaign rally poster, designed by Shepard Fairey and autographed by all four members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bernie Sanders, and Shepard Fairey. The Strokes for Bernie Sanders concert poster, signed by Bernie Sanders, all five members of The Strokes, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Tim Robbins, Cynthia Nixon, and other participants. Additional memorabilia, autographed by Jon Fishman and Mike Gordon of Phish, Nathaniel Rateliff, and more! The auction is live now through March 6th! Log on and place your bids today! All proceeds from this auction benefit the Sanders Institute, the progressive think tank that is the legacy of the Sanders campaign.
