Description
Added poster text: Nowadays, when you have sex, you need to protect yourself. Condoms are the only sure way of reducing the risks of unplanned pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases... including HIV/AIDS. You can buy condoms from chemists, supermarkets, petrol stations and vending machines. There’s more to condoms than you think—check out the instructions next time you buy a pack.
Poster held by Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library. History & Special Collections, Collection no. 306, item UK003.
Yellow, blue, and white background, with title in red, and additional text in blue. Depicts two personified penises. One penis character is in the water, with worried expression and with mouth open as if shouting. The other, covered by a condom, is standing on a diving board (?) throwing down a life preserver. Logo at bottom of poster for Durex brand condoms.
