Poster has text "Apartheid Is A Monster" centered at the top, with the first three words as block letters filled with flames. At the bottom of the poster is an image of a monster holding a person in his left hand standing in front of a background of flames. At the bottom right of the image is the printed signature of Andrew Minewski the 10 year old fourth grader who drew the image. Small black text at the bottom left reads "the observance of the International Anti-Apartheid Year should promote: a) further isolation os the South Africa Regime; b) an intensification of the international campaign against apartheid; c) greatly increased assistance to the oppressed people of South Africa and their liberation movements by governments and organizations, as well as the public in general; d) maximum publicity to the inhumanity of apartheid and the international efforts for its elimination". At the bottom near the right is the text "United Nations Program for the Inernational Anti-Apartheid Year".

This is from a series of posters produced as a calendar by the American Committee on Africa. [LMC]
