Hail the triumphant birth of the Liuzhou Steel Factory Revolutionary Committee!

posted Saturday, 19 August 2006
One of Liuzhou's largest employers is the local steel factory, Liugang.
I came across this and had to share. It is a poster from the cultural revolution (April 1968).
The writing at the bottom reads "Hail the triumphant birth of the Liuzhou Steel Factory Revolutionary Committee!"
Indeed!

How in the world did you find that? Do you actually have that poster?

I do not know why, but I have this strange facination with that style of artwork. It strikes me as a Communist-refurbished Art Deco kind of style. Man, those workers are happy, though. Maybe I need a revolutionary committee?

I just came across it by accident when looking at the maopost website. I wish I had the actual poster!

If yo are interested in seeing more, then this site is probably better.

Yikes! Those sites are great! I had never actually gone out and looked for these online, but just enjoyed the plethora of such posters around me, especially working in the countryside quite often. That second site, by Stefan Landsberger, has really nice quality representations. Thanks
