Multi-color poster printed on thin white paper shows an image on the top half of the page of a group of people on a red background. All of the figures appear with their mouths open as if shouting. A man in the foreground at right holds a rifle in his hand, and two other figures among the crowd hold up objects (such as a wrench) in the background. Text at the top left in white and yellow reads "Primero / De Mayo / Dia Internacional / Del Trabajador." The butt of the rifle extends beyond the image into a dark blue text box on the lower half of the page, where white and red text is aligned at left. The larger white text reads "!En Iran, A Traves / Del Mundo, Y Aqui / En EEUU Se Van / Difundiendo Llamas / De Revolucion!" Smaller red text in Spanish appears below. Details on demonstrations in Oakland, CA and Washington, DC are printed at the bottom of the poster along with a list of sponsors. "reunirse 10AM: San Antonio Park / E. 18th St. & Foothill" is crossed out with black marker at bottom center. A white box for writing in local contact information is visible at lower right.
