Poster has a light gray background with a dark gray, red and white lined border. In the center are three drawings of Christmas nutcracker toys: A Santa Claus holding a bag of toys, Uncle Sam holiding a bag of money, and a soldier holding a bag of guns and missiles. Below reads, "a little m.x. could ruin your x-mas." This refers to the LGM-118A "Peacekeeper" missile, also known as the MX (for Missile-eXperimental ), a land-based ICBM program started in 1972 and revised under Reagan in 1981. [LMC]
