Object history | The verses read: We shall win / there is no blockade / Europe speaks with us / every country has sent an Ambassador / every country has the red flag. / Workers in Europe / enough of words / forget the October upheaval / You too send, not envoys / send us red Ambassadors. The illustration shows a flag lettered 'sweetmeat for Ambassadors' flying over a globe with London, Warsaw, Rome and Peking indicated. This impression may have been a printer's proof. |
