'It's not easy to stay Neutral!' - Postcard from the First World War showing European nations as women attempting to woo a Dutch sailor.

The women represent Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, Italy, Britain and France. The postcard was published around 1915 in the Netherlands, possibly for use by internees at the camp at Middelburg (combatants of all nations were interned in the neutral Netherlands). Publisher is named as F.B. den Boer Middelburg.

Austrians praising Bismarck is like Americans praising Hitler in the present day. How mentally ill must you be to make something like this?

Venezuelan mural (2024) showing Iranian and Iraqi military leaders with Jesus, Imam Mahdi and Hugo Chavez. The mural is titled 'Mural of Saviours' and was unveiled in Caracas in January 2024. The figures (most called 'martyrs' here) are, from left to right:

Hamid Taghavi, Iranian Brigadier General killed in Iraq in 2014.

Hugo Chavez.

Qasem Soleimani, killed by US drone strike in 2020.

Jesus Christ and Imam Mahdi.

Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Iraqi commander killed in the same drone strike as Soleimani.

Sayyed Razi Mousavi, Iranian Brigadier General killed by Israeli airstrike in 2023.

Imad Mughniyeh, Lebanese military leader killed during a CIA-Mossad operation in Damascus in 2008.

The mural was commissioned to mark the fourth anniversary of Soleimani's assassination. Smaller text reads in Spanish and Persian: 'The way of the martyrs is derived from way of the divine prophets'. It's located on Caracas' 'Iran-Venezuela Friendship Path' (Paseo de la amistad Iran-Venezuela) and its unveiling was attended by the Iranian ambassador.

'Going down!' - American poster from the Second World War (ca. 1943) showing Hitler in the toilet.

The poster was included in an issue of 'Hobo News', a newspaper published by the International Brotherhood Welfare Association, which was founded at the turn of the century to provide support for homeless workers. The poster was one of a surprising number produced during the war showing Hitler in the toilet.

American anti-Nazi map (1939) showing much of the world conquered by a 'Leviathan Germany'. Text at the bottom reads: 'This map shows the Nazi plan for "redistribution" of the world as described in this book'. The rest of the world is ruled by the US, Japan, Britain, Italy and 'Doubtful', indicated by the key at the bottom left.

The map was published on the dust jacket of 'The Revolution of Nihilism: Warning to the West', a book written by German Conservative emigre Hermann Rauschning arguing that National Socialism was an anarchic and nihilistic movement that would result in catastrophe both for Germany and the wider world. Rauschning advocates instead for a conservatism that would facilitate the 'progress to higher forms of our Western civilization'.

An extract from the book:

'For us Germans, the issue is plain and simple. Everyone who is still capable of thinking for himself must know that national socialism is leading us to self-destruction. The revolutionary character of its foreign policy must inevitably lead to campaigns which will exhaust the nation. In opposition to its boundless aims and revolutionary methods, the plain question must be asked what lasting benefit they can bring the nation. Even if the Third Reich achieves complete success in the redistribution of the world, if after a series of further successes and ultimate victory it sets up its hegemony, in the nature of things this can mean nothing but a permanent military occupation of subjugated territories, with all the accompanying violence and terrorism. But there is no escaping the logical conclusion that the day will come when this effort brings exhaustion and the military occupying force is crippled. This will in all probability happen much sooner than the apparent rapid growth of power might suggest. For the German nation is overtaxed, exhausted by its training before the race begins, and really ill. But when its power is crippled, what then?'

'The Motherland Greets a Hero' - Soviet painting (1961) showing crowds greeting Yuri Gagarin following his return from space.

French Catholic illustration (1935) showing a mother and child sheltering beneath the cross from communism, fascism and Nazism.

The illustration was published in the 29 September 1935 issue of the Catholic magazine Le Pelerin, which published dozens of illustrations through the 1930s condemning the three ideologies. The caption to this illustration reads:

'GESTURES - The sign of the Cross, a gesture the mother teaches her child, will remain - amid gestures that divide, a gesture of unity and peace.'

A message in South Vietnam addressing black US servicemen: 'You are committing the same ignominious crimes in South Vietnam [as] what the KKK clique is perpetrating against your family at home'.

The photograph was taken in 1967, though the message was adapted from a North Vietnamese-produced leaflet from 1966, distributed in the South by the National Liberation Front/Viet Cong (the leaflet's wording was the same).

'Reaction is a snake that the iron hand of the revolution will choke' - Turkish cartoon (1930) showing a gauntlet choking a snake. The cartoon was published during the period of Ataturk's reforms, a campaign of modernisation that sought to, among other things, combat religious fundamentalism, which I believe is what 'reaction' ('irtica') is referring to here. Wasn't able to find publisher or illustrator unfortunately.

'Speaking of time tables' - German leaflet from the Second World War (1944) mocking the Allies' slow progress in the Italian campaign. Published at the end of Battle of Monte Cassino in May 1944, the illustration shows death measuring the rate of the Allied advance, predicting a 1952 arrival in Berlin.

The Allies' slow advance up the Italian peninsula was the subject of much German propaganda in 1944 (one of the more famous posters from the period mockingly compares the Allies' speed with a snail's). Germany's propaganda office in Italy - the Propaganda-Abschnitts-Offizier Italien - published many similar leaflets that were dropped over Allied positions throughout the campaign. This leaflet included text on the back:

'Probable arrival in Northern Italy about April 1948. And the price? Further 700,000 men lost as dead or wounded … Probable arrival in Berlin in or about 1952. And the price? Another 600,000 men dead, wounded or taken prisoners! That means another 7 long years of bloodshed! And that means you will never live to see it.'

The Allied armies landed in southern Italy in September 1943 (at Salerno, shown at the bottom), though difficult terrain coupled with determined German resistance slowed their advance. After several months of intense battle, Allied forces were able to break through the German lines in May and capture Rome in June 1944. The advance up Italy continued until the end of the war a year later.

Members of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" (DaDongYaGongRongQuan) have a meeting. Each person can be identified by both their attire and armband. Seated at the table is Japan (RiBen), China (ZhongHua), Burma (biruma), Dutch East Indies (LanYin), Philippines (BiDao), Malaya (mare), French Indochina (FuYin), Thailand (Tai), and Manchuria (ManZhou). Each member displays what they can provide to the union. Japan's contribution is a battleship and tank (their military power). India (YinDu) and Australia (HaoZhou) can only gaze into the room through an open door since they're still at war with Japan. The artist depicted Australia as an Aboriginal to acknowledge the country's indigenous people rather than its Western colonists.

The description of the illustration says something along the lines of: "Let the peoples of East Asia unite, pool their vast resources, and build an economy based firmly on the principle of co-existence and co-prosperity."This illustration was created by Hosokibara Seiki (1885-1958).

Soviet scarf created by Nikolai Semyonovich Demkov following the death of Lenin in 1924, with Trotsky's portrait removed at the bottom left.

Lenin dominates the centre, with workers shown around him, while in the corners Marx, Engels, Kalinin are depicted, with Trotsky's portrait removed (and in later versions, replaced by Stalin). The scarf was one of many propaganda textiles produced in the 1920s, particularly in the city of Ivanovo where this one was designed and printed.

Demkov was commissioned to produce this scarf in March 1924, just over a month after Lenin's death. It was completed in May and subsequently mass produced. Some of the scarves were brought to the First All-Union Teacher's Congress in Moscow on 12 January 1925, which seems to be the origin of the examples included here.

The second version shows Stalin replacing Trotsky, while the third shows Trotsky intact.
