Description
Poster, "Bread, Work & Freedom for the People of Chile"

Yellow poster, showing a multi-coloured Chilean figure holding aloft a Chilean flag. The figure was a commonly used symbol by the Chile Solidarity Campaign on posters and banners. Above reads "Break, Work & Freedom for the People of Chile" and below "No Betrayal of Chile No Deals with Pinochet". The poster is identical to a poster advertising a national demonstration, other than the lower half which is blank on this example. This suggests that the poster was a template which could be over-printed with further information about different events and demonstrations.
