Place of origin |
This Catalan poster calls for workers to unite against the fascist Nationalist regime in Spain. It would have been produced during the Spanish Civil War which raged from 1936-1939. The initials UGT stand for Union General de Trabajadores, a Socialist trades organisation. The designer of this poster marked it with his initial, 'R.' and may well have been a member of SDP, a syndicate of professional designers to which many pro-Republican graphic designers belonged.
