Long rectangular poster with an image across the top and small black text below. The image depicts small drawings of missiles in different positions in the desert. Each missile group is numbered with a small number. Below the drawing are small blocks of text that explain each missile numbered with corresponding numbers in the drawing. The introduction to the text reads, "Missiles: 1960/ Towers of strength for the course of freedom, the missiles in this panorama deter aggression protect our cities and defense installations and meet the threat of brushfire wars." The right side lists companies that have been making the missiles. This is a good example of public relations efforts by the Military-Industrial Complex. [LMC]
