Poster has a background image of a crowd of people with a large grey building on the right and yellow sky on the left with green trees on the horizon. In the front center is a man in blue pants, green shirt and a red beret. He is drawn facing the crowd and holding a large black gun. The top of the poster reads, "Pueblo, Ejercito, Unidad... Garantia de la Victoria/ Unidos para combatir/ Unidos para construir/ Muerte a la contrarrevolución Somocista/ Patria Libre o Morir." Client for this poster was the "Comision de Propaganda de F.S.L.N. Leon." This poster models a classic wartime theme, the unified front of industrial/agricultural production, a vigilant population, and military preparedness. In this case, the revolution had already been accomplished, but counterrevolutionary forces were at work.[LMC]
