Bottom right corner of printed area has an artists signature resembling a 78 with a larger "7" and small "8" in the background plus " ''92" next to it.

This is a double-sided poster with a depiction of a man in a conquistador helmet and clothing being attacked by two men with painted faces and long hair. One of the men with a painted face is holding the conquistador while the other man stabs him with a crucifix. The image is black and white with red on the conquistador''s sleeves, mouth, eyes, and in the form of flames in the background. Black gothic calligraphy in the upper center reads "500 Years Of Resistance / October 12, 1992 / Protest!

The back of the poster has a 1.75 inch tall black rectangle at the top with "500" in white on the left. A ship and other images are faintly visible in white against the black box. Gothic script fills the rest of the page. It begins with "We demand that from now on Columbus Day be declared an / international day of mourning and outrage" and is signed "The Autonomous Coalition To Prevent The Big / Die-Off" at the bottom
