Beneath the large map is another inscription: "NARMIC (National Action Research on the Military Industrial Complex) 1501 Cherry Street Philidelphia, PA 19104 Copyright October 1984. 5M Design: Bob Aretz". In the lower right corner is "Price: $3.50".

This is a horizontally oriented poster with a gray and brown map of Central America and the Caribbean taking up the left 2/3 of the area. This map is outlined in black and has a small, overlapping map at the top left corner showing the area with respect to all of North and South America. Overlapping the right corner is a black-outlined circle showing part of Central America in detail. Black text above the large map reads "On The Bring?U.S. Military Intervention in / Central America and the Caribbean" with the words after the ellipsis in much smaller font. Both the large map and the circular detail map include blue, green, red, and yellow arrows leading from place to place along with various triangular symbols and representations of ships in the sea. The right third of the poster is filled with small text explaining each of the symbols and arrows, which represent various types of U.S. military involvement in the area.
