Description
Purple poster featuring orange and yellow text reading "CONQUER YOUR FUTURE NOW" around a shining white star. Text at the bottom of the poster reads "JOIN THE YOUNG COMMUNIST LEAGUE" with an open brace next to it and a blank space which was perhaps intended to handwrite a meeting time/place. The poster is from around 1960 The poster has a mini Daily Worker newspaper stuck just above the star. The Daily Worker (now the Morning Star) was set up by the Communist Party of Great Britain in 1930, as an alternative press to mainstream news outlets. It is the longest running socialist publication in the UK. The mini-paper is black and white and reads "from factory to front page" in a red box. The mini-paper is A7 size and has 12 pages, each giving reasons why you should buy the Daily Worker. Contact details for the Daily Worker are on the back page. Condition: tears at
edges, the mini paper is very fragile
