Alianza para el Progreso poster 409b, public health (Spanish poster distributed in Mexico City)
A Spanish-language third-anniversary sheet headed 'Public health with the Alliance for Progress'. Around a large Alliance emblem, a ring of small gold emblems frames seven photographs: a man holding up a vial before a crowd of families, a laboratory microscope, a nurse treating children beside a branded van, children drinking from cups, sugarcane workers and well-drilling. The tell is card-stacking: only completed activities appear, with no figures, places or costs.
