This poster shows two skulls wearing Nazi helmets, holding guns. One skull is pointing a rifle while the other holds a sword. Behind them, a ruined city burns with people running in the distance. The text says "El Fascismo" and lists a talk about German fascism at a Mexican palace. The skulls are a clear warning—death comes with fascism. The event was free and aired on two radio stations, showing how art and media worked together to spread messages in the 1930s. Want to know more? Look up lithography.
