Description
Poster, 17” x 22,” uses photos and illustrations in 18 blocks spelling out the steps to surrender. Produced by the United Nations to instruct North Korean Army and the Communist Chinese Military how to surrender, and to illustrate what a Safe Conduct Certificate looks like (an example illustrated at bottom right corner). In a frame. The United Nations produced numerous designs of Safe Conduct Certificates and dropped them from airplanes into North Korea during the Korean War. Designed to look like Korean currency with one side providing instructions on how to surrender and to ensure the holder of the certificate that they would be treated humanely upon doing so. This poster illustrates an example of the General Mark W. Clark Safe Conduct Certificate, issued after General Clark became the commander in chief of the United Nations Command. Unsure if this poster was ever displayed to its intended audience, as it was punishable by death to have on your person one of the Safe Conduct Certificates. A near fine example of psychological warfare propaganda. Presented in large frame, VG.
