中華民國萬歲 (Long Live the Republic of China), Military Affairs Commission Political Department poster
A tall strip poster: the Nationalist flag, white sun on a blue canton, streams over clouds above the slogan 'Long live the Republic of China' in heavy black characters, with the issuing department named down the side. The tell: the flag and an acclamation stand in for any specific claim, so the message is loyalty by symbol.
