Poster is printed on white paper. Poster is a collage of images including: a protest, men working in a factory, men at a meeting table, a family picnic, a family in a hospital room and two elderly people in a living room. At the bottom right is text that reads: "Collective Bargaining -- Community Progress". Below the title are two columns of text that reads: "Recognition of the UAW meant recognition of the worker / as a person and citizen. It gave him a voice and a face / on and off the job. Before, he had been on the receiving / end of management decisions, a passive victim of / economic forces. / Now he was at the bargaining table, with the leverage to / lift himself and his family into a better, fuller life. His gains / in income, security and dignity spurred gains by other / workers in other undustries. Collective bargaining brought / benefits to the whole community.".
