This is a white poster with a black and white illustration in the top half. The illustration is a box about 1 inch from each side edge of the poster. Inside the box, there is a border with a squiggly, barbed line around the bottom half. The line morphs into a tube with a nozzle on each end at the top of the box. There is a drip coming out of the left nozzle. Interspersed with the squiggly line/hose are corporate logs such as that of "GM", "Ford", and "Exxon". Inside the border, a large, winged creature with a gas mask for a face flies over a landscape of scaffold towers and a domed structure with a moon on top. The winged creature carries a bomb in its feat. There are three smaller singed creatures dropping bombs in the background. An illustration of an explosion is coming out of the right side of the domed building and stick figure people are flying out of the explosion. The bottom half of the poster features a paragraph of small text discussing the war in Iraq. Large font below this reads "Funeral Procession / 6 Pm, Sat., Jan. 16th / Market & Powell, S.F." with smaller, centered font below saying "Be Creative" and continuing "Bear In Mond Over 250 People Die Each Day From The Sanctions, / And Bombing Might Resume This Month. / Emergency Coalition to Stop the U.S. War in Iraq - 415-821-6545".
