Bottom left corner has "San Francisco Poster Co." printed in red.
Poster has a center image of a nude statue of Lyndon B. Johnson holding a phallic missile in one hand like a sword, wearing cowboy boots, a small cape and a helmet with an eagle. The classical fig leaf covering his crotch has fallen away to reveal tiny genitals. He is stepping on a Vietnamese peasant man with skinny legs wearing a conical hat. Around the image is a border of red stripes and white an blue stars. There are red leaves falling around the statue.
Kunzle attributes to "Pentagon Dodecahedron Ltd., San Francisco."
