A Free Worker in a Free Homeland (Arabic poster distributed in Beirut)
An Arabic one-colour poster in blue on brown paper. Two open hands with broken shackles at the wrists hold between them a lit torch with radiating lines, above the slogan 'A free worker in a free homeland'. The tell is glittering generalities: 'free' and the torch stand for an ideal, and the sheet names no programme, party or sponsor.
