| Summary: | 'Select good seeds to increase production out of love for the nation.' An early period poster illustrating the importance of agricultural production and loyalty to the CCP. During the period around 56-60, i.e. the Big Leap Forward period, paper supply as well as many basic necessities are in great shortage. We have seen that many posters of this period were reused on the blank back for writing. On the back of this poster is a hand written complaint letter complaining the inequality of distribution of relief fund. A good poster as well as a good exhibit of the harsh lives of Chinese people at that time. |
