Description
Poster, "April '78 Boycott Chilean Goods", 1978
White poster with back print. The poster reads "April '78 Boycott Chilean Goods". Below is an illustration by Jeff of an onion, with a dark image of a bird, possibly a crow, within and an apple featuring an image of a skull, representing the torture and murder of many Chileans under the Pinochet regime.
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.
