Lower right under image is "The City by Arthur Secunda first in a series."

Poster has a black background with a thin gold border and a gold image in the center. The image appears to have small circles and gears overall. Below in blue is "The security we profess to seek in foreign adventures we will lose in our decaying cities. The bombs in Vietnam explode at home; they destroy the hopes and possibilties for a decent America." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." The bottom reads in peach text, "A Poster for Peace: Men and Women in the Arts Concerned with Vietnam." This sculpture was part of a multi-work series that started as a response to the 1965 Watts riots and grew to include a broader concern for social justice. [LMC]
