Description
Poster, "Don't Buy Chilean Apples", 1977
Yellow poster with back print. The poster reads "Don't keep the Fascists in business DONâT BUY CHILEAN APPLES". Below is an illustration by Jeff of an apple, with a stylised skull in the centre, representing the deaths of Chilean people at the hands of the Military Junta government of Pinochet.
The poster was produced by the Chile Solidarity Campaign in an effort to discourage the in-direct financing of the Chilean dictatorship regime of Augusto Pinochet. The regime was known to have committed Human Rights abuses, including the torture and murder of political prisoners.
