Untitled is a 1975 by The Print Shop, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This poster shows a skull wearing sunglasses with atom symbols over the eyes. Below it, two crossed-out sheets of music have atomic energy symbols. The text at the top reads *"There Is No ‘Peaceful Atom’"* in bold letters, and at the bottom, it says *"Atomic Energy is Deadly."* The skull and crossed-out music sheets make a strong statement against nuclear power. The sunglasses and atom eyes add a dark twist to the warning. Check out The Print Shop to see more bold protest posters like this one.
The 1975 offset poster by The Print Shop is rendered in black and white and features a skull and crossbones symbol.
