Description
White poster with black text reading "Remember the Blitz" and "No arms for Germany" with a list of UK towns and cities that were subjected to bombings during WWII in the centre, around 1955. This poster was issued by the Communist Party and printed by Publicity Printing in protest of West Germany joining NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) and gaining rearmament. The Communist Party were against German military forces being armed as they thought it carried danger of another war, with potential nuclear attacks. Condition: good. There is a faint outline on the back where a first attempt at printing may have gone wrong.
