Description
Stamped Aiken Collection on verso: Published by the Labour Party, Transport House, Smith Square, S.W. 1
Part of: British political campaign posters
A vertical rectangular poster features a solid, dark orange background and dark green or black text. The large, all capital, sans-serif letters are centered and stacked vertically in six rows. The first row reads "VOTE LABOUR" in a narrow font. The following four rows are printed in wider font and read: "AND," "STOP," "THE," and "SUICIDAL." The final row, "ARMS RACE," is printed in the same narrow font as the top line. The typography is bold and occupies the majority of the poster's surface area. The paper shows signs of aging, with slight discoloration and visible creases.
