Scientific Century Supplement poster, No. 1, front (Korean-English poster distributed in Seoul)
A four-panel Korean-English science supplement, unfolded. Panels show a prism splitting light with a pH indicator colour chart, an illustration of dinosaurs captioned as from the New York World's Fair, and a photograph of a jet marked U.S. AIR FORCE and captioned as the world's fastest 2,000 mph aircraft. The sheet explains science and shows U.S. technology. The tell is transfer: the prestige of science and U.S. aircraft is attached to the U.S. as a source of progress.
