    Vintage Cultural Revolution Poster: “Defense Room Preparation”
    English translation: “Defense Room Preparation”
    This is a vintage original poster from the Chinese Cultural Revolution period. This is an early Chinese propaganda poster dated 1965. It has six drawings of people preparing to defend their country against a potential attack. Although his predates the Cultural Revolution by one year, it is an excellent example of how the public was indoctrinated and prepared for a war.
    The poster was called a “Military Air Defense Training Map” and was produced by the People’s Liberation Army.
    For its age the poster is in great condition. There is some yellowing from age, tearing and water damage on the left side. These posters were produced on inexpensive paper and never expected to last 55 years; so it’s surprising that it is in such great condition. The poster has been kept in a plastic sleeve for the last almost 30+ years to protect it. It is approximately 30 inches wide and 21 inches high.
    A letter documenting the purchase will be included with the poster, a sample of the letter is attached.
