The Visual Representation of Women Collection is a postcard collection that focuses on representational images of women from around the globe. Covering the gamut of postcard types, images portray the many social constructions of womanhood and their attendant meanings. Containing a variety of mass produced postcards to unique artist renditions, the collection is an ongoing project of FAU University Libraries' Special Collections that will build over time.

The Vojtěch Kubašta Collection includes more than 315 advertisements, calendars, flat books, maps, models, pop-up books and greeting cards, portfolios, postcards, posters, prints and stationery.

The Bienes Museum acquired the materials from various sources, and the collection also includes books and other research materials related to Kubašta's career.
